Jeff Yaksick's photostream

I like to think of myself as an Artist, but I haven't played one on TV in quite some time. I'm an interaction designer by trade - degreed in graphic design and Illustration.


Noteworthy career accomplishements to date include:

Lead UI for NeXT's, NEXTIME video application. (NeXT = Apple)
A precursor to Apple's Quicktime. Can you say brushed metal?

Lead UI for WebTV's original service and applications. (WebTV)
When the Web was young, the internet was slow, and dial-up was king.

Lead UI for WebTV's, WebTV Plus. (WebTV = Microsoft)
WebTV's big screen TV brother.

Lead UI for Dishplayer. (WebTV + Echostar)
DVR before TiVo.

Lead UI for UltimateTV. (Microsoft + DIRECTV)
DVR done right, business done wrong.

Lead UI for Internet Protocol TV. (Microsoft + Most world-wide telco's)
TV soon to be at a home theater near you.

Lead UI for something cool at Google.
Mums the word.
