Twitter sent @reply messages to email
Early this morning at 1:04am PST I received in my email @reply messages that I had been sent through the day. I didn’t change any settings on twitter so I’m unclear whether this is a bug or a new feature.
Anyone else have this happen to them?
Relevance: Trying to sort out why this happened
update: I figured it out. Apparently I signed up for a 3rd party service and forgot I had done that.
During the lunch session of the UBC Town Hall I attended yesterday, there was a “usability situation” that I watched with interest. One of the attendees was having a difficult time trying to figure out how to press a knob or button to get hot water from the dispenser. Finally she called one of the Catering staff members for assistance.
She unfortunately was not much help as she say a tiny button at the top and pressed that but found it hard to keep the water flowing. Finally she was able to figure out that she had to press the lever down in order to get water.
Relevance: Usability issues confront us daily like a game to be solved in order to win a prize (e.g. win hot water).
