in people’s lives.

Conceptual Model:
Three Layers of Digital Services
1. Information
2. Platform
3. Presentation
Traditionally…
We’ve presented
our audiences
with a final
product – info,
platform, and
presentation all
baked into one
confection.

Four Principles
1. Information-Centric
2. Shared Platform
3. Customer-Centric
4. Security and Privacy
Information-Centric
Moves us from managing “documents” to
managing discrete pieces of open data
and content which can be tagged, shared,
secured, mashed up and presented in the
way that is most useful for the consumer of
that information.
Responsive Design:
METADATA IS THE NEW ART DIRECTION

Customer-Centric
Influences how we create, manage, and
present data through websites, mobile
applications, raw data sets, and other
modes of delivery, and allows customers to
shape, share and consume information,
whenever and however they want it.

Framework
November 2007, New York Times
“People want to use their phone as a phone.”
“Only 13 percent of cellphone users in North
America use their phones to surf the Web more than
once a month, while 70 percent of computer users
view Web sites every day.”
But….
“We cannot predict
future behavior from current
experiences that suck.”
And….
“The only important thing
about design (and technology)
is how it relates to people.”
