Especially the first, continued sentence in red clarifies the situation (at least to me) quite a bit.<br /><br />However, I also must admit I&#39;m not sure if I get your latter part (also in red, starting with &quot;And, assuming that...&quot;); if a product is aimed for a new target group, all bets are off anyhow what comes to previous user understanding. There might be two issues at play here: a) to develop a product for a new segment/market/etc and b) create a new UI for existing product. What I understand you said in the paragraph makes sense for case B, but if one wants to pursue option A one needs/should do research anyhow, regardless of innovating in UI or not.<br /><br />Btw, in case you haven&#39;t heard this before, your postings have been very pleasant to read! :)Janne Kaasalainenhttp://www.studioe18.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968619.post-22652319138955208212010-07-10T14:11:35.231+02:002010-07-10T14:11:35.231+02:00<b>FIRST ITERATION</b><br />@Janne<br />I have tried to improve the explanation of why knowledge of usability issues and the user group might be reduced due to product or UI innovation. Is the line of reasoning more clear now?Jasper (uselog.com)http://www.blogger.com/profile/10274466709014480194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968619.post-18413032933254405332010-06-18T15:50:34.897+02:002010-06-18T15:50:34.897+02:00@ Janne<br />Thanks for you input. The point I&#39;m trying to make is that it is often not recognized how high-risk an undertaking UI innovation really is. I&#39;ll try to explain this better and incorporate your feedback in this recommendation. I will process and incorporate all feedback I get once a I&#39;ve posted all recommendations.Jasper (uselog.com)http://www.blogger.com/profile/10274466709014480194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9968619.post-76925845896943546732010-06-18T10:55:33.567+02:002010-06-18T10:55:33.567+02:00Re: UI innovation = high risk<br /><br />I think this chapter needs clarification and/or more justification. Why is it that innovating diminishes knowledge of design solutions? Shouldn&#39;t it work the other way around? Why does this has anything to do with the knowledge of user group? Shouldn&#39;t it be that the original design is made with less knowledge of the user group? Also, not introducing some changes runs the risk of not having better usability.<br /><br />It might mean by UI innovations you are referring to something more specific, in which case defining that would be helpful.<br /><br />You might be correct on all of the above, but whether or not that&#39;s the case more clarifications would be appreciated.Janne Kaasalainennoreply@blogger.com
