Unfortunately for Ben and his team, Louis is kind of a flake.  The day after the interview with the Provost, Louis emails Ben and says he’s too busy to work on writing the final article with Alice and Cy.  So, Ben then has to remove Louis from the “Write Article” task.  To do this he navigates from the home screen to the “Herald Dining Article” bucket view, and then to the editing screen that allows him to add or delete users from a task.  He select’s Louis’s username (reason), and completes the operation by clicking on the “Delete” button.  Louis is no longer assigned to that task.

Landing Page: Image Added

This design has a very simple landing page. Users who are new to BucketList can watch a short demo video, showing them the key features of BucketList and how the site works. This video is mainly to convince them to create an account, but also serves to teach them how to use BucketList once they do (since the UI is so simple, this task is relatively easy).

There is a "login" button at the top for old users to simply provide their username and password, and a large "create an account" button for new users.

Main Page:

When a user logs in, this is the main screen that they see. To navigate, they simply click on tasks / buckets in the left column, which change the view on the right side of the screen.Whatever task / bucket is being viewed on the right will appear in bold in the list on the left. Viewing a bucket or a task looks similar to the user; it simply displays the user's who are currently assigned to that task / bucket, and all notes regarding the task / bucket, and a button to add users to the task / bucket. To view / hide the tasks within a bucket from the list on the left, the user can click the triangle beside the name of the bucket.

...

Overall, this design stresses the simplicity and efficiency of the user experience. There is only one page to navigate, and there are clear buttons for all major tasks. It is easy for users to see everything they need to do, and quick to accomplish tasks, both for new and experienced users.
