6Sunday, 30 November 2008Senior Manager, UX+CS. I joined 3 12 months ago having worked at Telstra in mobile user experience. Prior to that, well, I hung out here a lot :-)
Currently I’m responsible for tactical and strategic direction for mobile, devices, applications, online and self-service. I’ve also recently started leading company wide process reforms and chair UX panel between UK and AU.
For those of you who already know me, you’ll attest to the fact that I am passionate about User Experience. More precisely, I am absolutely driven by our ability, as a discipline, to significantly improve people’s lives. I work for Telco’s because I see mobile technology as being the most powerful and accessible means of achieving this outcome.

"Mobile is the fastest and cheapest way to reach the largest number of people. There are billions of people on this planet who
still don't have access to the Internet. And we think mobile presents the biggest
opportunity to get them on the Internet.“Chris Sacca, former head of special initiatives at Google late 2007
8Sunday, 30 November 2008•So mobile really does represent an amazing opportunity to create meaningful experiences in people’s lives.
•And this is the challenge I think most businesses are starting to realise.....

Experience is beyond good service.
Good experiences are: remembered, savored, recounted, publicised, souvenir-ed, replicated
It’s more about the sensations that people get from using service. Sometimes that is what people come for and pay for

Indispensible desirability
20Sunday, 30 November 2008But these problems are particularly important to 3 as our aspiration is to be Indispensable Desirable.
To challenge and change forever the way people use their mobiles and the internet, by creating an experience that is simply better than the one they know today.

21Sunday, 30 November 2008And in order to achieve this, we’ve realised pretty quickly that the only way forward is to change the game we’re playing..

22Who’s driving?22Sunday, 30 November 2008
One of the problems we face today producing compelling designs in the degree of mobile technology fragmentation
It’s hard to know where we’re going and the best way to get there. It’s very easy to get lost in the options

“I know what ugoogly is”
30Sunday, 30 November 2008To give you a better understanding what typically goes on, here’s a typical product on 3 Mobile.
How do we get to the end-user view?
Provisioning: Global test, local flex design, local testing, provisioning partners, updating our servers and gateways, visual design testing, content testing, OTA, and much more.
Rendering: Hutch, Provisioned, Who?, Device type, Roaming, Subscription checks, Billing systems check, etc...
RSS problems!!!
Device capability...
![Page 31: Future Mobile Landscapes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/5454a9fcaf79593f778b4fad/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31Sunday, 30 November 2008Different devices require different designs, either scaled or different style entirely.
At Hutch we do Pixel perfect design... At quite a bit of complexity, but there’s a payoff
Discuss traffic to Hutch, Portal access, and 3G content penetration.
How do we currently make sense of all these sizes? DA Classes: DA2, DA6, DA1,2, DA3,4, DA7 (soon - DA0 with liquid layout)
But there’s a better way --> pattern-based classes
![Page 32: Future Mobile Landscapes](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051322/5454a9fcaf79593f778b4fad/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

32Sunday, 30 November 2008Device capabilities
Roaming - 2G limitations what do you do?PricingDevice rendering: page weights, CSS reliability, media formatsPointer versus Scroller (link styles)Linear versus parallel renderingLatency - DNS, GTTN gateways, subscription checks, etc.Expectations around responsiveness.

DA6to-dohh!
33Sunday, 30 November 2008Pixel perfect style works brilliantly for us, 82% 3G content usage penetration. Telstra is 16%
But this means testing must be done on EVERY design, EVERY handset, EVERY different customer profile.

Walk-off!It’s a
40Sunday, 30 November 2008So we’re not prepared to sit back, and have taken some measures to address the situation.... And, we’ve continued to innovate.

What’s a LiquidLayout?
» expandable content» pages that flow» wrapping content» liquid CSS/Code» scalable design
41Sunday, 30 November 2008Moving beyond device classes, and moving to pattern-based interaction design.

42Sunday, 30 November 2008And we can even switch out UI component elements to better make interaction style (so we support haptic UI design).
Can be done on the fly...
