In project three we redesigned the commenting scheme that YouTube has implemented. Within this context we change quite a few things but of all of them I would probably remove the way we chose to edit the user defaults. The current method to change defaults is much harder than what we had designed, however given the activity of posting a comment, it didn't make a whole lot of sense the way we had gone about doing the design.
The initial design involved some check-boxes and the profile page editing and so on, rather removed I'd say. Our design made the editing procedure more available but it didn't simplify it at all, and it opened a new window. So in short it didn't really pass the "necessary" test described in the book, since it didn't have much to do with posting a comment. Along with the necessity it also had a low allure to our persona who didn't really bother with the commenting section so adding a window to make editing easier wouldn't really effect her, and would be useless.
