Michael Mace on using quantitative Market Research techniques for Market Segmentation. It’s better to use quantitative research – at least then you’ll know you have a representative sample of customers. But there are still two major drawbacks to this sort of research, which I call the possibility gap and the blender... I think the way to get past the blender and the possibility gap is not to try to design the actual products through research. Instead, focus on understanding the needs and psychology of the customers, so you can anticipate the way they’d react to new features. (more)

Christoph Labacher: Gotz Bachmann's Ethnographic Research on Dynamicland. While it would be inaccurate to describe the Dynamic Medium Group as secretive.. it is obvious that the publicly available information is highly moderated. Little is available on the history, inner workings, and processes of the group (more)

Jess Martin: A Few Research Updates. I'm happy to share my new Research Notebook... It took me less than two hours to export my notes from Bear, set up the new Gatsby site, and publish to Netlify. The update workflow is also quite a bit easier, so I plan to integrate more of my 1000+ notes over the next few weeks. (more)

Jess Martin: The Work I'm Looking For. I believe that computation represents a fundamental shift in human capacity, similar in scope to the creation of spoken language or writing. And yet we're only 50 years into a 500-year revolution. (more)

Jess Martin: Automations, Time spent in the environment, "And then what?". Yesterday I was musing on automations for note-taking apps and I was struck by the idea that automations in our tools can go too far. It seems there is some amount of desirable friction in working with our tools that changes the tool and our selves for the better. (more)
