Passion: My first month working at eBuddy
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010To be fair, I ask those kinds of questions a little more often than the average person because I am an Interaction Designer. So it is my job to represent the users of a product and ensure that their experience is a pleasant one, without any frustrations. Also, I understand the fact that sometimes bad experiences are caused by a chaos of multiple reasons and I appreciate good design for it is not easy to achieve.
Coming to my first day at eBuddy was like getting a little peek into Willy Wonka’s factory itself. No Oompa Loompas here but instead I found a great team of people that really care about the products and brand everyone has come to love. They work on new and exciting launches and celebrate new users and fans. They also read all your comments and feedback and actually listen to them. Much of this is apparent in their products although sometimes things are not as simple as they seem.
But most of all they’re a great bunch of people. They decorate desks for birthdays, play foosball at lunch and organize go-kart races. After a month I really feel a part of the team and really look forward to working with them on making your experiences with eBuddy the best they can be.


Also we’ve completely revised the way you are notified of new messages. Instead of scrolling the title indefinitely; we now play a sound, add a little counter on the tab where you received the message and we update the title to the total amount of unread messages. This way you can run eBuddy in the background, but still get notified of new messages!
