我相信WEB世界中的
丰富体验因特网应用技术
应该只被用来改善可用性和用户体验，我很确信可用性专家的角色正在得到广泛的关注。而这一点通过U.S新闻列表中可用性专家成为2008最佳职业也可见一斑。
可用性将使产品特别是技术产品对于用户
变得更加友善。为什么？首先专家们观察和采访了潜在用户的需求，满足了他们的偏好。在一个原型被开发出来之后，他们再一次采访潜在用户并进行产品的修改。毋庸置疑的，可用性专家的工作前景是光明的。新而复杂的产品不断涌现，当然需要很多可用性专家。
那么究竟哪些
丰富体验的因特网
应用技术产品能够被定义为新而复杂的呢？大概有很多。如果你进入这个领域，也将发现许多有趣点。他们的研究收入只相当于中等收入100K$。当然要想成为可用性专家并找到这样的一份工作也没有什么截近，最好的方法就是通过正规的学校教育。当然还有很多其他关于可用性设计师的日常生活的简短故事。我虽然很喜欢这些简短的故事，但这不是说所有人都可以这样。
基于目前可用性的要求，务必使你的RIA小组里有一个人关注可用性。
原文部分：
Given that I believe RIA technologies should only be used to improve usability and user experience in web software, I'm ecstatic that the role of the usability specialist is getting wide spread attention. It gained a spot in the U.S News list of Best Careers for 2008.
Usability specialists make sure that products, especially technical ones, are easy and pleasurable to use. How? First, they observe and interview potential users to identify their needs and preferences. After a prototype is developed, they watch and interview potential users again and suggest revisions. Not surprisingly, the job outlook for usability specialists is strong. The number of new, complex products is proliferating, and many of them demand a usability specialist.
How many RIAs could be defined as "new, complex products"? Probably most. If you're considering getting into this gig you might find these points interesting their research indicates a median salary of almost $100k in the U.S and the best way to get hired is through experience as opposed to schooling. Early days and big bucks...sounds like an exciting place to be. There's also a short story about a day in the life of usability/user experience designer. I like how both the description and this story include interview users, so get out there and talk to your users! So make sure you have someone on your RIA team focused on usability and check out this comic on your first day on the job as a usability specialist:)
