Kathy Sierra talks about creating passionate users and helping our users to kick ass and not suck!

While at #FOWA08, Adam and Josh spoke with Kathy Sierra (@KathySierra) about creating passionate users, building web apps, allowing your user to “kick ass”, community building and more.

This podcast is awesome regardless of its age. The conversation, in my opinion, was a very intimate take on what Kathy does to allow her users to “kick ass”. Kathy is by far an authoritative figure when it comes to community building, and learning how to treat and think about our users. Regardless of your role in the creative process, you need to be in touch with the importance of this relationship and the part you play.

  3. Tummelvision Episode 4

    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 http://tummelvision.tv/2010/01/31/ep4/
