TLC Bike Walk Twin Cities will be conducting pedestrian and bicycle counts and surveys as part of the ongoing evaluation of the Non-motorized Pilot Program, known locally as Bike Walk Twin Cities. These will happen on several dates April 27 to May 10, in locations throughout the City of Minneapolis. For more info: BWTC survey information. I’m coordinating the survey, so work with me to find a shift that works well in your schedule.

Now on a totally different topic, about which I’m also passionate: website usability, or more generally user experience design. This article defines “flow”, applies it to use of iPhone applications, and sets a course for designing user experiences that are more fun. Really interesting, as I approach designing a new feature for www.iseek.org (a way to search for apprenticeships).
\“Flow\” – the iPhone (and Web) Experience that Sells
Comment after the article is interesting: ”There’s easy fun, hard fun, people fun, and serious fun. And we better get good at designing all that.”
