I've read a lot of product management literature that encourages you to go out and see your products in use. Most of it says something like, "You never know how people are actually using your products until you observe them directly."
Whoever designed my 3-yr-old son's underwear needs to come to our house. T was so excited to get his 6-pack of Elmo underwear - he loves them. One pair in particular caught his fancy. They have a big picture of Elmo dunking a basketball on the back. The front just has a really small picture of Elmo in the corner. He loves the picture so much that he wants to see it when the underwear is on. So what does he do? Naturally, he wears the underwear backwards. There is no power on heaven or earth that can make that kid turn around the underwear the "right" way. "I want to see the picture." And that's the end of the conversation.
