One year anniversary for the first conceptual sketches of this site
It is now exactly one year since I created the first conceptual sketches for this site. This seemingly simple project was one of the most challenging projects I have ever completed.

My presentation on collaborative eye tracking
Today I will be presenting how i utilize the power of collaborative publishing principles in analysis, processing when declaring eye tracking data.

If the client is allowed to participate in the analysis of a usability study, awareness can be built gradually and the organization becomes more understanding and motivated to make use of the insights.My presentation on eye tracking and e-commerce
Tomorrow, dear friends, I will be presenting my work with eye tracking and e-commerce at a jam-packed Hotel Rival in Stockholm.

I have been invited to present my work with eye tracking and usability testing in e-commerce sites, at the Nordic e-commerce summit in Stockholm. There, I will focus on eye tracking as a way of diving deep into the mind of the users. And how eye tracking gives us a unique ability to optimize any web shop. They can only buy the things they see!Wifikartan: A study in a service that loses its meaning
The user experience is all about the small details. Some times very small things can affect the experience to such extent that an otherwise brilliant service completely looses its meaning for the user. A good example of this from my own experience is Wifikartan. A service that I found, loved and suddenly stopped using. Let’s take a look at how a small missing feature can make a loyal user to move on.Mårten’s sketching techniques helped us improve our design process
We at Creuna decided to ask Mårten to give his sketching technique workshop for our design team consisting of both Graphic designers and Interaction designers. What we did not anticipate was exactly how profound effect this little two hour workshop had on our daily design practices!Categories
What do I like? Taste and bullying in social media
“Like’s” on facebook and other social sites is a very interesting concept indeed. A minimum effort from the user results in a statement that may be encourageing or discouraging for the receiving part. The important question I need to ask myself is off course “What do I like?”Categories
The forgetful gadget
I’m hard core iPod user since the absolutely first 5 gb model was released back in 2001. The super simple step by step navigation appealed to me and syncing my complete music library was just so cool. There is a few small things that the engineers from apple havent managed to get right. The iPod sometimes suffers from acute amnesiotic seizures. Categories

Mårtens eye tracking study made us know our users a thousand times better!
Taking part of a usage test and eye tracking study conducted by Mårten was quite an experience. To witness a user struggle for several minutes with a problem we did not even know existed turned out to be equally painful and rewarding. I now feel that I know our users a thousand times better than before. Categories

Effect management the guiding light in every design
Creating successful results is the goal of every designer, however it is just a fraction of all interactive sites and solutions that get ahead and get profitable many hardly even getting noticed at all. As a designer I avoid just designing and focusing instead on designing for effect!
