TummelVision 4: Kathy Sierra on creating passionate users and you

Episode 4 – Download the Show

Kathy Sierra joined us for a great conversation about her biggest passion: you. Note-worthy moments and themes:

– How do you create excellent experiences for users

– Clay Shirky’s recent rant about women, wishing they’d show more chutzpah and self-promotion

– a useful unself promotion approach to work and social media presence than “personal branding.” It’s certainly working for Kathy.

– Why follower counts aren’t the thing to pay attention to

– the iPad’s social possibilities both online and between real life and online.

– Deb quoted the Talmud tonight, Kathy Sierra Daniel Pink and me QVC. That’s range!

– Deb got a cowbell, Heather grabbed a hairbrush and Kevin rocked out

– We never wanna get ourselves free. This week’s song is so very cowbell worthy.

– Books mentioned: Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience (P.S.)– Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (Kathy dropped his name all casual-like) and Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us

– Daniel Pink
