Congrats to Jesse on winning WIRED’s 2006 Rave Award for Technology!
We are thrilled that Jesse James Garrett, our colleague and friend, has been honored by WIRED magazine with the 2006 WIRED Rave Award for technology. WIRED recognized Jesse’s innovative work in defining and coining Ajax, an approach he’s advocated through his product design work, lectures and writing.
Jesse has made a career of putting complex ideas into simple frameworks, making them accessible to non-technical audiences. Through his book The Elements of User Experience, his Nine Pillars competency map, and now Ajax, Jesse has consistently helped product teams find opportunities and realize their potential for breakthrough design.
You deserve it, Jesse. We couldn’t be prouder.
