“Each time you consider adding or removing an interface element, put it through the wringer. Is it a necessity or an accessory? Does it support your main message? Remember, it’s better to do one thing well, than many second-rate.” – Luke Wroblewski

- We want to focus on achieving our goals, not deciphering technology
- Why should we all suffer an interface that is unusable?
- Create deep connections between users and their technology
- Treat your audience less like a faceless user and more like a human being
- A coherent product user interface is the product to users
