341: Counterintuitive User Experiences

<p>This week, we talk about counterintuitive user experiences that designers regularly design for in our day to day work. Let us know what we missed! As always, we catch up on feedback, tweets, and share our cool things of the week: a blog post explaining how to polish an interface, and a YouTube series about first-time reactions.</p> <hr /> <h3><strong>Golden Ratio Patrons:</strong></h3> <p>We're looking for partners to work with.
