Experientia, the Turin-based experience design consultancy, just launched an Italian version of Putting People First, its very successful professional blog on experience design, user experience and innovation.

The URL is www.experientia.com/it/blog.

Putting People First (PPF) functions as a non-commercial experience design portal aimed at all those interested in the broader field of experience design and user-centred design.

All posts have in common that they reveal some insight on how to create products and services that are driven by an understanding of people.

The Italian version of Putting People First contains summaries of all the articles of the English version of the professional blog and goes back nearly 8 months - to September 2006. The blog, which contains about 450 posts in all, also features all the functionalities that the English version has.

Putting People First is maintained by Experientia partner Mark Vanderbeeken with the support of his business partners and his readers. The Italian translations are by Sarah Conigliaro.
