Ask & You Shall Recieve

After the first nudge from Lucas, I listed some Killer Startup Tools. And after some groundhog-day-style conversations with recently knighted UXers, I popped up: UX It Right

Here is a list of firms and tools that is in perpetual beta. They’re all tied together by the great work they do, the culture they nourish – and most of all the value they bring to the world. Amen.  – Jonas

*I’m always looking to add to the list – so please drop me a mail with any tips and suggestions.
