I recently came across an article about how user interfaces matter that was written 11 years ago. “The Importance of Designing Usable Systems” by Susan M. Dray.

The article’s content is still relevant and insightful. Many of the points covered are relatively obvious to us now – but they are presented in a way that is easy to understand, drawing palpable benefits for non-UI-heads.

It is a nice, short and powerful piece. Read it and share it with people who still don’t value or believe in the benefit of good UI. Tell these non believers that this not a “new thing” or “trend.”

This stuff matters and they better pay attention or they will be left behind.
