Another random thought on prototyping, book review schedule

Seems to me that one of the pitfalls of prototyping is that the fidelity of the thing we’re putting before the user might not be sufficiently rich enough to test the interaction design. Then too, when we do so at a very high fidelity level that includes HTML prototyping with clickthroughs, and get up to the integration with the visual communications component (i.e., the “look” part of the “look and feel”) that it interacts with the “feel” part, which is the interaction, so as to create an effect that is altogether different.

I have three books on the stack right now: Rapid Contextual Design, The User is Always Right, and Communicating Design. I see the venerable About Face 2.0 is about to be revised for a 3.0 edition and so too is the textbook, Interaction Design. I’m going to give the books on the stack a look see this week so I can get ready to review the next few in the pipeline.
