Front-end Developer, Designer & User Experience Advocate

OMG!?!?! UX Advocate !?!?!

Definition:

"A user experience advocate is someone who advocates for better user experiences"TM

" Meaning... "

" Why a title? "

" Can I be one? "

UX Advocate Oath TM

"I [insert name], promise to respect and acknowledge the goals of users, whether I am the architect of an experience or not, and to voice my concerns when I feel a user's experience is being infringed upon by a lack of effort or thought."

Legal

The User Experience Advocate Oath' is not a real oath. It does not legal bind yourself or any other party to a set of rules, regulations or standards. You are free to use the title "User Experience Advocate" but it does not decree any level of certification and you understand that the party before you (Darcy Clarke) does not have any accreditation or certification himself to provide you with such. You also acknowledge that by reading this well-written legal-esque paragraph that Darcy Clarke will not be held accountable for any harm, financially, mentally or physically that may or may not come to you as a proponent of the "User Experience Advocate" title or Oath. This is just some legal-esque text that has no Copyright as of 2012 and intellectual property rights have been completely waived. This is otherwise known as the "Do what you want" Licence.

I started this second paragraph just to look more legit. I think legal copy usually has more then one paragraph right? Maybe I'm wrong. Either way, if you're reading this you rock! And whomever you're sitting beside. For no good reason. I'm totally going to go make a sandwhich now if you're cool with it. I'm pretty hungry and the first paragraph wipped me of all my legal-speak. Totes feel okay to keep checking out the rest of these slides though. They're all totes awesome.
