Arrived in Hong Kong ahead of #UserExperience work with several universities. Was expecting big tech advances since my last visit in 2016, but not really apparent yet. Most notably, cash is still king here.

Fantastic training session from @andypriestner.bsky.social yesterday in #QUB on #UXdesign in HE. Joined by some of my @cedqub.bsky.social colleagues, we explored user-centric design in #HEI. I learned so much and left feeling inspired and motivated about UX!! Also…post-its and tree planting …🌲

So I asked my course participants today “Who invented Post-Its?” The answer I was looking for: Romy from Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion. Of course.

BlueSky is just a left "echo chamber" Yeah, it's terrible surrounding yourself with compassionate people who don't want to see the world burn, oppose genocide and think Donald Trump is a dollar-store Hitler.

As ever, I’m more intrigued by what library study furniture is not being used. In both cases I’m guessing it’s about desk space (and in pic 1: power). Staff will be actively researching this and other issues this afternoon #uxlibs #userexperience #UU #Ulster #Coleraine

Great to sign off on my consultancy with Queen’s Belfast Library today. Although User Experience has been a significant element, so has cultural transformation and staff workflows.

Only just realised that ‘the old place’ was rebranded as a ballot box ‘X’. How slow were we?
