The thwack team is continuing our efforts into 2015 to improve the overall thwack experience. As we head into the New Year, we will be making changes to the homepage, global navigation, and even rethinking how we organize the hundreds of thousands of resources available on thwack today. We kicked off this project last month and many of you took our survey and participated in feedback sessions with myself, mrs.alterego, maria.bungau , and katieb from our User Experience team (thank you!). We have compiled and analyzed all of the results in this initial phase and, with your feedback in mind, have built out the second part of our testing. This is where we need your help again.
We have built what is formally called a "treejack" to help us better understand how you find things on thwack. Note: This is not a test, there are no right or wrong answers. The results from this will directly shape the direction we go with page layout and global navigation. This should only take 5-10 minutes of your time and for those of you who submit your feedback before January 2nd will receive 500 thwack points for your participation.
