Why Bad Design Still Exists & Other Thoughts (podcast)
by Joshua Porter | 
Comments
Had a good chat with MarketingMonger Eric Mattson recently about functionality vs. design, why sharing is the killer web app, marketing’s role in a web app world and why bad design still exists despite all of the great resources that are available.
Podcast: MarketingMonger Podcast #26 - Interview with Joshua Porter of User Interface Engineering ( 30 min )
Eric interviewed me as part of his quest to create 1,000 podcasts. I’m #26, so he’s got a ways to go. But at the rate he’s going he’ll probably get there within a couple years. Good luck, Eric!
Some of the other casts that I’ve been listening to are interviews of Ryan Carson and Jason Fried. Both good listens.
