UX, Predictive Content in The Age of #Bored #Easily #Quickly
by thebengali
I love all this new User Xperience (UX) stuff, just love it. Companies, brands, apps, designers, engineers are all into it and everybody together is getting very good at taking decisions for the user (that’s me in this case). In fact, they are so brilliant at UX that they already know what I want, when I want it, how, and they just deliver it without even me having to ask for it: they pre-deliver solutions before I even realise what […]

Of Value And Values
by thebengali
A mango ready to eat, withers ‘n’ rots. It cost 100 bucks – so that’s a waste of a 100 bucks. That was the last mango of the season: so that’s now a colossal waste since it’s a year to the next mango. For a poor human being who hasn’t eaten in 5 days: that mango was nourishment and the difference between life and death.

“You Can’t Just Throw Technology At A Training Problem – You Have to Have Curriculum, You Have to Have Instructional Design”
by thebengali
31 October 2017, EATS2017, Estrel Convention Centre, Berlin: He is the ‘Editor in Chief’ of Halldale Media’s iconic aviation industry magazines – Civil Aviation Training (CAT Magazine) and Military & Simulation Training (MS&T). Unassuming and rather publicity shy for a famous industry trade journalist, Christopher Lehman is a whole lot more than an aviation journalist. Epitomising the competency and professional performance focus that CAT and MS&T espouse in all their editorial content and conference programs, Chris is a first among […]

by thebengali
So Dutchman Michael van Gerwen has won the World Series of Darts for the third year in a row. On Sunday (November 5), he beat Gary Anderson of Scotland 11-6 in Glasgow, at the packed Braehead Arena.

Well, it was all thanks to a 23-year-old entrepreneur, Timm Bange. Timm is […]

Obituary Of An Age: Arun Sadhu Has Left The Building
by thebengali
What does it take to create great literary and journalistic works that impact a generation, a region, a society, a nation? And what does it take to keep creating such works? How does one stay relevant in changing times? It was 1996. I was 25, hauling my life out of a deep abyss, single-minded about making a living out of writing and I had no place for any advise from outside of myself. I was a student of the […]
