Week10B

Today in class we discussed what a persona was. We talked about the most important parts to a persona. At minimum you should have a photo, name, age, location, occupation, and biography. This is  meant to help the designer understand what type of user might go to their site. I called my website's company and they gave me some good responses. I asked who they thought their typical user was and they responded with everyone. Though it's not the best responsive it did make me think of it as more individuals rather than families. I also asked what they want their user to get out of their website. They said that they want their user to find what they're looking for quickly and easily. My last question was where do the users typically go to find out about the website. She said they mainly just do google web searches.

I started working on my persona and getting information. I think the main user would be an older man living alone looking for some different types of food. I came up with the persona of Earl Snyder. This is what I got done in class.
