While it is common knowledge that the Japanese are not confident about their English ability, this does not seem to hinder the desire for tourists all over the world to visit this country.  While I was trying to go somewhere on a train platform in Tokyo many years ago, I found a staff member, pointed at the map, and asked him in my broken English, “Which platform should I take the train from to go here?” The man did not answer, but he pointed at the information desk and quickly ran back there.

UserXper invited Tencent’s first interaction designer, Chen Yan, to speak at the MIX2015 forum about Tencent’s user experience development.

When you see the poster shown above for the first time, do you get an urge to take out a magnifying glass and "see what the heck is that in the middle?"

It is another adaptation of Marvel comics that brought us the Avengers. The story is about a meeting of opposites: "Shrinks down to the size of an ant upon putting on the Ant-Man Suit and is also

The marketing of product features and quality is now old-school. The challenge for marketing now is creating a brand that touches the heart by capturing the customer experience and emotions. "Experiential marketing" is a brand manipulation technique that emphasizes customer experience. Its top practitioners include COCA COLA and IKEA, and of course, Disney. COCA COLA came up with vending machines that can only be used by forming a human pyramid; or having to align two caps in order to open the coke bottle; IKEA's real-world showrooms and online catalog app; and then you have Disney and Disney Land where

When I first saw this video, I thought, "You can't be serious!" But when I saw the same reaction from every person in the video, I became a believer. My curiosity was piqued however. "Why emphasize the extreme speed of an electric car that is supposed to be all about being green?" The video that made me believer was a third-person video of test drives during the "Insane Mode" of Tesla's new Model S P85D. As the name suggests, the car went from 0 to 96 km/h an hour in an insane 3.2 seconds! 3.2 seconds might sound rather
