Mobile touch screen UI trends

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have detected new trends on web design for touch screen mobile
devices as HTC, Samsung, etc...?

Have you seen any web optimized for HTC?

Everybody is optimazing their website to iPhone UI, but what about the
others touch screen devices?

What would you recommend, should we use a different UI for this kind of
models, more iPhone like or should we keep designing classic mobile web UI?

optimize or not optimize?

Cheers!

Jorge

Use of red in hyperlinks and buttons

I'm currently debating the use of red for hyperlinks and button color standards for a site design over traditional colors such as blue.  Does anyone have any articles or research on the use of color in web typography, titles, hyperlinks, buttons, etc. they can refer me to?  Thanks for any help.

User Research: Three user groups, five hours. What would you do?

I am being given the opportunity to visit a client of our software to
do some user research. I have never been on site with any of our
clients before.

At this client we have 3 user groups two who do different tasks and
one super user who can do everything plus config.

I only have five maybe six hours depending on flights being on time
etc.

We have full access to both groups all day but I would like to send
them some sort of schedule so they are not just sitting around
waiting on us.

Goals:
1. Understand the users and how they use the software.
2. Uncover any pain points.

Website/App reviews

I want to raise a discussion on website evaluations (expert reviews/heuristic evaluations).

Does anyone have the site or app they are working on evaluated, or is this an old fashioned resource that has got lost in the world of lean UX and user testing?

If you do have your site/app evaluated, at what stage in your workflow do you have this done? Prototype stage, pre-user testing, pre-launch? And how useful do you find the completed report?

Activities / Games to teach User-Centered Design?

I am building a workshop to teach User-Centered Design. The target audience is people who want to integrate UCD into their software development process.

What I am looking for is activities and games to teach different aspects of UCD so that they can really "feel" the difference UCD makes, the before and after.

My workshop focuses on three areas:

- User Research (Contextual Inquiry, Interviews, Analyzing the data, establishing goals, creating personas, etc...)

What's the right default font size for a website?

Is there any research on font sizes? Yes, you should build your site
so users can change the size, but in reality many who would benefit
from doing so don't know that you can, even if you provide the tools.

You need to start with an appropriate default. What should that
default be?
