Very good text. I’ve found your blog via Google and I’m really glad about the information you provide in your articles. Btw your sites layout is really messed up on the Chrome browser. Would be cool if you could fix that. Anyhow keep up the good work!

[...] Paper prototyping is a method used by many web designers (including myself) to help plan and conceptualize new site designs or features. Simply put, it’s creating website prototypes on paper. By removing distractions like code and syntax and any technical elements, the designer can focus in isolation on the form, structure and design of the piece he’s working on. [...]

As far as user testing with paper prototypes, I have always had a piece of paper for each page. Then use little yellow sticky notes for buttons and have users push the sticky note and show them what piece of paper would then become the new page. And ask if they were expecting that page to show up. Lastly I would sit back and watch them try to navigate by themselves and then give them a short order list of instructions to accomplish, ie….which page to arrive to.

Its clunky, but it works.

I almost always prototype on paper. Usually saves time in the long run. Then there are those days when I just can’t translate it.

You pose a great question that I think a lot of people would love to get insight on. Would love to hear some industry experts chime in!

I’d also be interested to hear some of your findings/discoveries, Sam. What are some of your best practices?

It’d be interesting to know how often people user test their paper prototypes in the process of refinement. If so, how are they doing it?

This is one of the problems we’ve set out to address recently – to make user testing of paper prototypes as easy as paper prototyping itself.
