I’m so, so happy that Trys has joined us at Clearleft!
Here, he recounts his first day, which just happened to coincide with an introductory UX workshop that went really well.
I love Krystal’s sketchnotes from my talk at An Event Apart Seattle. Follows on nicely from Ethan’s too.
An interview with Batesy that gives a nice insight into life at Clearleft.
He’s sketching mad, that one!

Eva-Lotta’s sketchnotes from this year’s dConstruct.
A great article on the importance of sketching for mobile-first responsive designs, complete with practical ideas for workshopping.
I like this idea: stencils for common interface elements to be used with good ol' pen and paper.
