Blue Umbrella

At year's end, we donate a portion of our fees to causes that matter to us. Thank you @CycleToronto for advocating for safe cycling infrastructure. Thank you @torontolibrary for providing access to materials and services in a challenging year.

After wrapping up our work with @Turfwealth, we're excited to see research insights become integrated in the app design. #UXResearch #FinTech #FinancialGoalSetting

@Calendly Hey, thanks for your response. However, this group feature doesn't resolve my challenge. I'd like to create a max of 5 time slots per event (not per day, in total)

@BlueUmbrellaUXR Hi there! You can create a group event type and set a max invitee limit right from your Event Types page. Check it out! bit.ly/2EFRe8T Support@calendly.com is happy to help further if needed.

@Calendly You built a popular tool for UX research, because allowing participant to self-schedule is very handy. However, when will you allow us to set per-event maximum signups? This is essential & your help blog has plenty of data to back it up. Thanks!

.@amplelabs_co did a wonderful write-up of our project about hidden homelessness. medium.com/ample-stories-… #UXResearch #TechForGood

Say it with us: inclusive design matters.

We love working with teams who want to learn and apply qualitative research skills to their day jobs. This is a write up of a Research for Non-Researchers Workshop: Interviewing 101. blueumbrella.design/interviewing10… #ListeningSkills #AskingGoodQuestions

"Equity is about giving people equal outcomes." Thank you for the webinar, @CRXLAB.

We're eager to learn about Equity-Centered Community Design from the @CRXLAB in today's webinar. creativereactionlab.com/our-approach

We're hosting a webinar for @OpenClassrooms students about "Understanding and Analysing Client Needs" for UX, Java and .Net degrees and any others who want to join. We're eager to see what corner of the world students join in from :)

Tuning into @StickyNotesChat with @MandaLaceyS and co chatting about UXR & UX opportunities during a pandemic.

Well deserved, @amplelabs_co! Such a wonderful group of thoughtful, hardworking and persistent people!

As a design researcher, it is deeply fulfilling to see research outputs illustrated beautifully. Peoples' voices come to life, sway emotions and create change. #HumanCenteredDesign #VisualCommunications

It's finally here - @ArlanWasHere will be talking about her book. Wednesday!
