'Happy WUD!' That's how I'm greeting everyone today on World Usability Day!

As I mentioned earlier, Human Factors International, TechSmith, and Michigan State University partnered on a research project and usability test in honor of World Usability Day.

We studied the ease of use for three travel sites when making holiday travel plans and to see if there was a difference in assessment between expert and novice users. A secondary goal of the study was to determine the degree to which remote tests are consistent with and as robust as the in-person tests.

Now, we have the results from the study, and you are welcome to view the test findings in a report available here. There are some highlight videos you can view as well.

I'll be taking some pictures at our local World Usability Event at Michigan State University today. Please visit my Flickr photo gallery to see the pictures from today's event. They should be uploaded later tonight.

So, today I say, 'Happy WUD' to you!
