People use their phones whilst: Killing time waiting for a friend Stood waiting for the traffic lights to change (in cars and outside of cars)  Waking up on a morning Going to bed on a night Waiting for an appointment  Bored at the dinner table Generally we use it as an all encompassing time waster  The idea of designing a website for the coffee queue The user isn’t fully engaged They want the content as quick as possible They’ll be on a mobile phone They’ll likely have a poor internet connection They want to find something out They want to be engaged, intrigued, interested, surprised They won’t do anything complicated, and likely will forget to complete anything that is It’s a powerful way of thinking about the next website you’re involved in.
