Exploring Design @ Google - Doug Fox

February 16, 2012

Introduction: Today’s post is a continuation of our Exploring Design @ Google blog series which highlights the work of the user experience (UX) team at Google. The user experience team is a multi-disciplinary team of designers and researchers who collaborate with engineering and product management to create innovative, usable, great-looking products that people love to use. The mantra of the the team is: "Focus on the user and all else will follow." Each week, we will feature a different Googler on the team and talk to them about their role, their background and what they love about working for Google. For today’s post, we sat down for a few questions with Doug Fox, a user experience researcher on the Google Analytics team.
