I just finished testing an app for a company and being able to review and give feedback has been surprisingly therapeutic. It stands strong with my personal philosophy that designers do more than "make pretty things", and it really got me to reflect on the why's and how's (especially on
how to improve user experience). Plus I like helping people out, so being able to provide constructive criticism to make something better is a win-win situation.
Wow, I had almost forgotten about this cartoon...
