About the UX Booth
The UX Booth is a publication by and for the user experience community. Our readership consists mostly of beginning-to-intermediate user experience and interaction designers, but anyone interested in making the web a better place to be is welcome. If you're interested, join us and discuss best practices and trending topics, or share your experiences.
What is this stuff?
User Experience
User Experience (UX) in the online community is the practice of influencing how a person uses and experiences a particular website.
Usability
The ease with which people can employ a particular tool or other human-made object in order to achieve a particular goal.
Interaction Design
Interaction Design (IxD) is the discipline of defining the behavior of products and systems that a user can interact with.

Guest Authors
First and foremost, the UX Booth celebrates its guest authors. The best perspective on what makes a usable web is a novel perspective. Listed below are the guest authors that have contributed content to the UX Booth:
