Zach Larson - Sidereel - write on-the_walls_20110511
- 1. We Wrote on the Walls How information radiators made a good team great and helped us exit for a gazillion* dollars. Zach Larson Cofounder & Chief Product Officer, SideReel Acquired by Rovi, March 2011
- 2. What’s an “information radiator”? Information up on the walls! Publicly visible In a highly trafficked area = Push instead of pull
- 4. What’s a successful information radiator? Information light Cheap to build and maintain Informs discussion so that conversations are richer
- 7. This exposed problems… Home base didn’t know what the product team was up to Developers didn’t always know the most recent insights Even when people were physically collaborating, it was hard to define the mechanics of UX
- 8. …problems that info radiators could solve Near the rewriters Near the rest of the team
- 10. …did user testing & shared the results…
- 12. We did it for big-picture stuff, too.
- 13. …with just enough detail.
- 14. Information Radiators … Orient people quickly around important ideas … Answer basic questions … Make the most important information easiest to access … And therefore make conversations more useful.
- 15. When to make an IR When folks keep asking for the same information When there is a core set of information to share When the people who see it will share a context When people find it useful
