World Usability Day 2019

November 20, 2019

Usability happens not by accident, but by design. As technology makes inroads into every sphere of human life, it falls upon designers to humanize it and make the world a better place. World Usability Day, celebrated across the world on the second Thursday of November, drives home this simple yet earnest message. 

UXShots, a group of UX professionals at QBurst, led the conversation on usability at Technopark, Trivandrum by organizing a UX-themed game show. The event, which threw a series of challenges to contestants, attracted 22 teams from companies across Technopark.
