We've Rebelled

Featured image for post

We were recently invited by Shropgeek to give a presentation at their first ever Rebellion event at The Alb in Shrewsbury on Thursday 21st February 2013 (sorry, we know the post is a little late).

The Rebellion event gave us an excellent opportunity to show people the thought process behind the development of new.shropshire.gov.uk - in particular Customer Journeys and the User Experience work that we are carrying out for each new service we add.

We explained how Project WIP formed, who makes up Project WIP, how we chose our new Content Managment System (CMS), how we worked closely with service areas to redesign their online presence, and how and why we made the design choices we did.

It was really inspiring to see so many people there and it was great to get a chance to mingle afterwards too.

We’d like to thank everyone who attended the event and we hope you were all able to take something away from it.

The Project WIP team blog contains many informative posts about what we’ve been up to and the mischief we intend to get into next. If you are interested, please follow us on Twitter and be sure to sign up to become one of our testers.

Design for the customer…

not the service area.
