week8

I must add before I begin that this lecture should have been delivered way ahead of many lectures as usability is a very important aspect in software development plan.Indeed it is important to understand our targeted audience before implementing usability to any software. A bad usability for a software can result for a failure and a good example of bad usability was when Macintosh introduced Mac computers in Japan for the first time when they didnt look after the needs of the targeted audience and hence even after a decade, were never successful.One such example of good usability MSN, why MSN is successful is because of their design which is suitable for different age groups and hence the targeted audience finds it easy to use and user friendly. That is why there are more users using this software rather then any other.
