Why when it comes to UX the best time to invest was yesterday
The hallways of human invention are studded with stellar success stories - products so impressive they’ve garnered a cult following amongst users - but take a left at ‘walking sleeping bags’; or a right at ‘fish training kits’ and you could end up amongst ‘motorised ice-cream cones’ (yes, all of these ‘wonders’ actually exist).
