UX vs. UI: What's the Difference?

Image
  Understanding the difference between UX and UI can get confusing -- the roles work closely together, and sometimes the terms are used too ambiguously to firmly understand either one. To understand the difference between UX and UI, let’s start with an example: YouTube. Take a look at the YouTube home screen. Everything you’re seeing -- the search bar at the top, the “Trending” and “Subscriptions” and “History” categories on the left, the “Recommended” videos below -- is all the work of a UI designer. At its most basic level, UI is the presentation and interactivity of a product --  where’s the sign-up button, is it easy to navigate, where’s the logo and if I click the logo where does it take me?

Imagine you can’t search account user’s by their username, so it’s hard for you to find that girl who sang an acoustic rendition of that Ed S

7 Brands That Changed the Face of Beauty Marketing

مسجد جامع کرمان

به نقل از Cosmetics   کرمان یکی از استان های وسیع کشور به شمار می رود که به دلیل پیشینه ای که دارد بیش از 7 هزار ابنیه تاریخی را درون خود جای داده است. از بین اثرهای تاریخی حدود 700 مورد آن را در فهرست آثار ملی ایران به ثبت رسانده اند. یکی از این  اثرهای تاریخی مسجد جامع کرمان یا همان مسجد مظفری است که در مجله مستر بلیط به بحث در مورد آن خواهیم پرداخت. تاریخچه مسجد مظفریه در سال 750 هجری قمری در زمان حکومت محمد مظفر ساخته شده، که بعد از گذشت سال ها هنوز هم زیبایی گذشته خود را حفظ کرده است. این بنا در نزدیکی بازار مظفری واقع شده است به همین علت می توان با رفتن به آن جا از بازار تاریخی آن هم دیدن نمایید. طبق سندهایی که وجود دارد گفته می شود این مسجد در بیرون از کرمان ساخته شده بود که بعد از اینکه این شهر وسیع تر شد در داخل شهر قرار گرفت. در زمان حکومت مظفریه، محمد مظفر هنگامی که به نبرد با قوم جرمان و اوغان پرداخته، نذر کرده است که اگر پیروز از جنگ بیرون آید میراثی را از خود به یادگاری بگذارد،  به همین علت دستور ساخت این مسجد را داد و به نام مسجد مظفریه معروف شد. سایت مستر بلیط به ارائه

  To consider what a KOL (key opinion leader) is, let's start with a real-life example. Jaclyn Hill is a makeup artist and YouTuber whose channel focuses primarily on beauty products. With 5.8 million YouTube subscribers (as well as 6.2 million followers on Instagram), Hill is considered a makeup and beauty expert by her online community. In 2015, Becca Cosmetics partnered with Hill to create a limited-edition highlighter known as "Champagne Pop". The product was extremely successful, breaking Sephora's record for most-purchased product on its first day of release. Becca Cosmetics could have chosen another influencer to collaborate with, but the brand knew Hill had a specific niche community they wanted to reach. Hill was ultimately more than just another influencer to Becca Cosmetics -- she was a KOL, or key opinion leader. A KOL is similar to an influencer in regards to follower size, but a KOL has a more targeted audience. For instance, Hill's YouTube channel i
