This is amazing. I saw this first in Designer Hangout about 2 months ago. Thank you for making this.

I didn't get why this is in the top of PH today?

Better description is definitely needed. What is a “conscientious creative”? It sounds like an oxymoron. Being backed by Airbnb helps. I mean... Didn’t you guys learn from Pied Piper? If you need a consumer study to explain that the product is. Something needs to change. ✋

@dredurr this was made by the Airbnb User Research team & News Deeply so I don't have any inside knowledge of the branding. BUT, if I was to guess (from reading the articles/product intro) - they've deliberately made it vague so people can self-identify. Everyone is creative in their work - and conscientiousness is something will identify with individually. At a guess 🙄

@jason_crabtree_ A product that’s purposely vague... I don’t get it 😐. I give up! If you cannot clearly deliver the message to a first time user in 8 seconds. Then you have lost not only that user but whoever that user has told about the crappy experience as well. Not Dope 👎to leave users in Limbo. I’m hoping someone from the @airbnb team can jump in on this. Awesome Hunt Jason. Nothing against you at all 🤗

Will apply it to my daily work.

Pros:

It motivates us to self-exam by asking limited but important questions.

Cons:

The logic between every question is a little unconvincing. It can offers some helps but is hard to be an authoritative guide to me.

Another Lens is an open source design tool created by Airbnb and News Deeply, a journalism startup. I love the authenticity of the tool and believe resources like this are essential for anyone building products for other people.
