hbl — Your Feedback Makes a Big Difference!

Creating educational content for complex topics is challenging. EconViz has no staff of usability testers and no formal panel of test subjects that would support a higher quality process of iteratively testing and refining content between initial draft creation and publishing.
That means you and other visitors can have an extra large positive impact any time you submit comments, and there are lots of places to do so (anonymously if you wish) — the comment section under each blog post, comment pages for each tutorial, inline “submit feedback” mini-forms on each tutorial page, surveys at the end of tutorials, and email (hbl [at] econviz [dot] org).

Indeed. And hbl, I am beyond humbled by your work. In fact, your website is first on my bookmark bar. Really, it is. For what it's worth, I WILL get to your site and provide feedback. It's the least I can do.

As I recall, the last time I was at your site, the "busyness" chased me away. And yes, that's a "me" problem. But you'll get to hear all about it! :)

Thank you for all your efforts.

Hi Trixie,

Thanks for the kind feedback! But I disagree that the perceived "busyness" is your problem -- it's likely representative of the reactions of many visitors (or potential visitors) so that's the kind of reaction it's very helpful to hear about!

Also, thanks for the tweet a while back suggesting the site!
