Jef Raskin died on February 26th. While the public is hearing the story of his key role in creating the Macintosh, there is a lot to more know about Jef’s contribution to the way we think about user experience. From his view that good design was a moral duty, he helped us transform interface design into an engineering discipline. Jef will be remembered for information appliances, humane interfaces, and a passion that computers can be better.
