things more engaging!

Good usability and engagement is a necessary condition for survival
Usability
Adapted from http://www.nngroup.com/articles/usability-101-introduction-to-usability/ People will leave if… 1. Your design
is difficult to use 2. If it is unclear what it offers 3. If it’s easy to get lost
Interaction Design: Beyond Human-Computer Interaction. Preece, Sharp, & Rogers, 2011
Efficient to use Effective to use Safe to use Have good utility Easy to learn Easy to remember how to use Usability Goals
