Weekly Design Links – 07/20/21

No UX

By trade, I’m a UX person. To be honest, I’ve had a lot of job titles. There have been so many acronyms, definitions and job descriptions that never quite explain the work. I like to say that I solve problems with design. It’s a huge simplification, but it’s accurate. I feel like it’s better than trying to explain what “User Experience” is to a layman. Most weeks, there’s a slew of web and UX links. This week, there are none. So it goes. RIP Biz Markie.
