How long should you leave items in a basket, before clearing it (if at all)? As I mentioned in the question, I instinctively agree but am concerned that leaving items in the basket indefinitely could in some ways be bad ux. However, I'm concluding that in order to mitigate whatever way it might be bad to find stuff in your basket when you return months later, then the basket interaction should be 'managed' in order to easily and efficiently deal with the case of being uninterested, partly interested or completely interested in the contents of that basket. i.e. infinite timeout on baskets is not a standalone solution. |

How long should you leave items in a basket, before clearing it (if at all)? different, but not necessarily entirely absent. Baskets definitely do get abandoned online. |

How long should you leave items in a basket, before clearing it (if at all)? 20 minutes is thrown in as an extreme case there just to make a point, but (just to play devil's advocate), if there's a trolley of shopping hanging around the aisle when Tesco closes for the day, then it's fair to assume it's been abandoned and the items can be re-shelved/discarded rather than waiting for the shopper to come back the next day. |

Location based screen, location unavailable The granularity of detail in an answer probably depends on the desired accuracy of the location needed for your app. |

How should we prepare users for a site overhaul? yes - this empowers the users that are so minded; engages those that are interested; makes users feel special by being invited to trial something and offer feedback; makes the users feel smarter and reduces risk of users feeling stupid (like it's their fault they can't do something) |
