Week 3- planning and conducting interview

 I have not completed my interview yet, but I plan on completing it soon and this is how I will go about planning and conducting it. My planning phase would include me coming up with topic to talk about. For example, if a user is going to be interacting with a website. I plan on asking them do you believe the website looks good color wise? Do you think this website looks simple but efficient? Do you understand what this website is about? If I encounter any challenges such as a user not being able to give me good advice then I will most likely ask someone else for a second opinion. I think a lot of people tend to just say "yes the website was good" so they don't hurt people feelings.

The design of blogger is very simple sort of how apple's apps have simple design so using blogger just is very simple.
