IA Guardians

Liebe THS-Leser, hier habe ich mal wieder einen feinen Link für euch geangelt: Introducing Information Architecture at The Guardian.

New web products for the guardian.co.uk site are mostly developed by the in-house technology team. As a general rule of thumb, editorial and production teams come up with ideas of what they want to achieve. Product Managers then scope out projects. The design process involves dedicated web graphic designers, alongside input from the newspaper's art direction team. These designs are delivered as pixel-perfect PDFs. The product definition and the design are then broken down into individual tasks or stories, and the software engineers pair program in an agile methodology to deliver the product.

Der Beitrag beschreibt, wie Web-Projekte beim The Guardian durchgeführt werden und wie die Prozesse so sind. Ist recht interessant.
