  1. Operation Faceted Search A focus group of 20 people tasked

    with the mission of designing an awesome faceted search system on Envato Marketplaces. ! 10 Community Members (Users) + 10 Staff Members
  2. 5 Tasks 1. Survey 2. Mood Board 3. Information Architecture

    4. Interface Design 5. Video Chat + Regular collaboration over Google+ Communities and Hangouts
  3. My advice Choose your tools carefully (2-3 max). Trello is

    awesome. Google is OK. Pick passionate user and keep the focus group small (no more than 10-15) It will take a lot of your time (about 1/3 of mine). Be prepared. Split the design apart into pieces and only show low-fi wireframes Kindly explain that your role is to say “no” a lot Create a timeline with clear milestones It’s not design by committee
