Usability Conference
At usability conferences we try to understand why a user had difficulties operating a product and then use that information to make changes that will improve the overall function of product and ease of its use. Also, one of the important features of this usability conference is the premise that the conference is held for the purpose of finding practical solutions to problems, not just for collecting information
