(Part 1/2) Podcast Collaboration: Introducing my first 2 guests

(Part 1/2) Podcast Collaboration: Introducing my first 2 guests

(Part 1) 2 podcast collaborations in - time to share a few thoughts!

My first podcast was with ⁠Matthew Davidchuk⁠, a brilliant engineer. And no surprises - 90 minutes later, I walked out a slightly better engineer.

My second podcast was with ⁠Magali Pelissier⁠, a brilliant product leader. And no surprises again - 120 minutes later, I walked out a slightly better product manager.

(The podcasts are in "post production", so should be published shortly)

Look out for more podcasts with Matthew and Magali, as the first podcast has turned into a series! Plus, my next guest is a very special one from New Delhi, and we will be discussing a 3rd topic (hint: there may well be a hands-on, LIVE coding component to that conversation).

Do not over-Design. While a design is imperative, how much of it is needed is completely up to you.

Do not over-Design. While a design is imperative, how much of it is needed is completely up to you.

It’s sometimes compelling to try and get every question answered before you start working on coding a feature (regardless of which part of the stack it belongs to). But it may or may not be a good idea. Find the right balance. Here’s how we do it.

How to set up Campaigns in Facebook, Pinterest, App Store, etc.

Well, there's a lot to learn here, and I've hardly scratched the surface. But my hope is that it at least gives you a starting point.

I do a lot of our Software Design work while walking!

I do a lot of our Software Design work while walking!

When I am sitting in front of my machine, I want to be coding (or doing something that I really need the machine for). Design work doesn't necessarily fall in that category for me - at least not all the time.

Should your Product Manager have to be cognizant of your Architecture?

Should your Product Manager have to be cognizant of your Architecture?

The correct answer is "No". Or, is it? It really depends on a few different factors. Let's talk about a few pros and cons of either approach.

When we embarked on building a product, we expected some challenges. But not a few others.

When we embarked on building a product, we expected some challenges. But not a few others.

I knew we would have engineering challenges and that didn't bother me (having done this for a while). But what kept me awake were the roadblocks that were bound to be there that I had little clue about!

The True Cost of Meetings - it is more than what you think

The True Cost of Meetings - it is more than what you think

How much time are you spending in meetings? And are you sure you needed to be in these meetings?

One approach to create UX Designs is to draw them out quickly without relying on tools

One approach to create UX Designs is to draw them out quickly without relying on tools

If you can draw, this approach will work really well! But, even if you are like me and cannot really draw, it will still save you a ton of time if you manually drew out the UI pages to share with your development team.

User Experience(UX) Designs for Web and Mobile Apps

User Experience(UX) Designs for Web and Mobile Apps

While it would save time (which is priceless for everyone, not to mention smaller startups where it is even more valuable!) to use UX designs created for the Web for Mobile Apps, and vice-versa, it is hardly ever possible (if a seamless User Experience across devices is at the top of your priority list).
