Usability Services
I saw a notice that the government intends to procure the services of a specific company to provide a tool for usability purposes. It seems that there is much less competition than I thought (a sole source is necessary). I thought more firms were capable of providing that service. Could it be that the company Continue reading

Another Paper For Publishing
I submitted another article for publishing. I am planning to submit the paper I prepared on improving e-commerce websites for the Research Design course. I like that paper.

Article for MIAW, Survey Services

Usability Opportunities
I discovered that the federal government awards contracts for usability testing. An example is the award of a contract to UserWorks, Inc. to conduct focus groups and usability testing of FirstGov.gov(see https://www.gsa.gov/about-us/newsroom/news-releases/gsa-awards-firstgov-usability-contract-to-userworks-of-silver-spring-md). I am definitely interested in these opportunities. From the company website, UserWorks (http://www.userworks.com/index.html) seems like a good company. It is a user experience Continue reading

FEATURED
I am working to be published.
I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.
About THIS BLOG
I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.
I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability. If you are here for information on my success research, click on the ‘success’ tag. If you are here for information on my hometown, click on the ‘lindenguyana’ tag.
I welcome comments. Submit your comments and feedback at any time. I prefer that you use Facebook for comments, but feel free to comment in any of the blogs or on Twitter.
