Designing for Millennials

Summary: don’t design for Millennials; design for millennials’ tasks and you’ll likely find they’re universal. Since I changed my work email, I haven’t been getting the NNG Alertbox, I checked it out today and found an interesting article about millennials.

Apple UX Pioneers on How Apple is Destroying Design

This isn’t the first usability critique of Apple from Don Norman, but now it’s Tog helping out. Which is significant, since Bruce Tognazzini founded the Apple Human Interface Group as Apple employee #66. Norman was User Experience Architect and VP of the
