Why use paper prototyping, besides saving time? @DA01 I guess I'm sort of talking about creating a relatively low-fidelity prototype while still using a tool (e.g. instead of relying on a back end for prototype testing I'll use static content that "looks" like it's being loaded on the fly). |

Why use paper prototyping, besides saving time? Different kinds of feedback seems like a really important thing, and adaptability is something I hadn't considered. |

Why use paper prototyping, besides saving time? @Brendon good point. JohnGB could you elaborate a little bit? By tool do you mean prototyping tool, platform, or both? |

Why use paper prototyping, besides saving time? On forgetting about the constraints of the tool: can't that be a serious downside? I understand that the purpose is user-centric design, but I feel like designing within constraints is pretty important (e.g. Ryan North of Dinosaur Comics has no reason to 'prototype' a storyline that doesn't fit his medium). I guess like you said, it's about what works for each person (I am more effective when thinking with constraints instead of without them). |

Are there specific standards, guidelines, and processes UX in security? Benny, thank you so much for the response. It's extremely helpful in the scope of what I'm trying to learn. |

Is it bad practice not to allow users to create an account (versus OAuth or OpenID)? Thanks for the input--I am considering the first option. |

Is it bad practice not to allow users to create an account (versus OAuth or OpenID)? Thanks for the suggestion--I edited the question to call attention to my primary concern: whether it is bad practice to not to allow accounts local to the site. |

Framework or plugin for tracking user actions on a web application Actually the mouse tracing information in the presentation may be pretty helpful. Thanks for the link. |

Framework or plugin for tracking user actions on a web application Thanks--that's interesting. I may use that and simply have certain pages called with AJAX when specific actions are performed, though I'm not sure yet if it gives me all the information I need, or at least would like to have. |

Is it bad practice not to allow users to create an account (versus OAuth or OpenID)? I wouldn't be restricting it to Facebook, especially since I'm not personally comfortable using Facebook for authentication (too much data associated). If I give them a lot of options is it still bad practice to force OAuth? |

Is it bad practice not to allow users to create an account (versus OAuth or OpenID)? Thanks--I had seen the first one but not the second. I definitely wouldn't ever rely only on Facebook to sign up. I would likely give a number of options to the user for OAuth providers, but I'm curious if it's bad practice not to allow any final alternative to OAuth. |

Framework or plugin for tracking user actions on a web application A little bit--it provided a jumping off point and at least gave me some understanding of which search terms to use. Unfortunately they are prohibitively expensive for academic research in my case. I may end up writing a plugin that will just save all user actions that jQuery/JS can capture. |

Framework or plugin for tracking user actions on a web application This doesn't really fit my use case, especially since it doesn't follow a normal site structure (I generally use AJAX as it's a web app versus a web site), and traditional web analytics doesn't tell me much about user actions and understanding. |
