I have always been annoyed by people with multiple stickers on their cars like “My other car is a broom.” I guess they want me to see them as clever. Harrumph!
But clever vanity license plates are a different matter. When I was working for a consulting firm some of my colleagues referred to me as “Dr. Usability.” I believe it was intended as a complement. So I have been thinking about getting a vanity license plate I B DR U . Of course no one but my wife and a few colleagues would know what it means.
That stimulated me to think of some other plates that would promote the user experience profession, plates more interesting than USABLE . I image traveling along the Pacific Coast Highway informing all who find themselves behind me:
I B USR – my connection to the community of all users as is ILUVUSRS
UX4EVR –promotes the user experience profession, as does UXRCKS
UX4YNME – call to action, as is RU4UX
CUNLAB – recruiting aid
What would your vanity license say?
