Last Friday I got to visit the 2nd edition of Dsgnday in Amsterdam - many thanks to my employer Insiders for allowing me and 2 colleagues to visit Dsgnday. In this blog-post I would like to recap what I have seen and how I have experienced the talks. Simon Collison - The Designer's Guide to Being Essential The first speaker of the day was Simon Collison. Simon was very smart in combining his life story with his message. Simon explained how his life was modular and how he forgot some modules of his past and refound them over the past years. He continued that robots know it all. All the modules in webdesign can be designed by robots. So what makes a human webdesigner better than the machines? The answer to the question would be empathy. Simon quoted from an article by Travis Gertz. I've read it and I think its a must read. The part about AirBnb is very sadly so true. Its the most asked question of 2015 for me: can we have something like AirBnb? Great article , be sure
