Productivity Experience replaces User Experience

Ken Ohcs coins the phrase Productivity Experience and User Productivity Experience (UXP) in April 2006. What is it?

User experience design has evolved. It's been decades since we've had UX designers and they've helped bring the web to where it is today. BUT, these UX designed sites haven't evolved like the rest of the web.

What's missing? Well, it's Return on Investment (ROI). And how can we evolve UX? Simple... The evolution is from User Experience to Productivity Experience.

So, as we had user experience designers that helped us get to where we are today, we will soon experience a transformation to PRODUCTIVITY DESIGNERS. You will see this in portals, web 2.0 sites, etc. The concept involves user centric design (all the great principles of UX), but now with User Productivity Exerience (UPX).

This blog will focus on the User Productivity Experience (UXP) and advances that I see in the emerging technologies space that I feel can contribute to user productivity.

I hope this can become a forum or at least a stop on your way to enhancing productivity for you, others, employees of your company, etc.

Thanks and good luck!
