This week we’re joined by Jared Spool. Jared is the founder of User Interface Engineering, the largest usability research organization of its kind in the world. He also co-founded Center Centre, a new school creating the next generation of industry-ready UX designers.
We talked about (roughly in order):

- 46:39 Have you ever used any prototyping tool like “Fireworks” or “Sketch”? And if so, what is the best tool you’ve came across?
