Folks, it's that time of year again. Welcome to Round Two of the Bathroom Blogfest. Bloggers around the world will be asking and answering questions about the importance of restrooms in the customer experience.
I, however, have a slightly different kind of question...

Blogging About Bathrooms
This week I’m participating in the annual Bathroom Blogfest, joining up with 22 other bloggers from around the globe write about the importance of bathrooms in the customer experience. Why bathrooms?
Because bathrooms express cultural and design values loud and clear. Nobody wants a bad bathroom experience (insert shudder here.) When bathroom design doesn’t support user needs...
Why I love my completely inefficient bathroom
The Home Bathroom
I recently moved, and now I have a new bathroom. It’s completely new…new construction, new fixtures, and as a result…new habits. I have to say, the master bath has “wow” factor. I also have to say that it’s very clear that it was designed with a total disregard of efficiency and usability. And yet, I love it. How can that be? Read more...

Bathroom Blogfest '07: My Favorite Ladiesroom Around Des Moines
Why? Because they have clean, roomy facilities - and plenty of them. I’ve never seen a waiting line there! The stalls are stocked with ample supplies and there are hooks and shelves for your belongings. There’s a lounge to relax in and make a free local phone call. There’s a separate ...
Bathroom Blogfest '07: Automatic Flushers - Pros and Cons
Automatic flushers on toilets. They seem like a good solution. People don't have to deal with the whole germ issue and touching handles. And the toilet gets flushed when needed. ...
Bathroom Blogfest '07: What About Those Sprayers?
One of my pet peeves is those automatic fragrance sprayers they have in some restrooms - like that's going to get rid of bad smells? All it does is add to the odors in the room and cause distress to a lot of people who have sensitive respiratory systems (asthma, etc). ...
Wordless Wednesday: Hotel Bathroom in Chennai, India
Let the Bathroom Blogfest '07 Begin!
It's already the end of October and time for the annual Bathroom Blogfest! held the same week as the National Kitchen and Bath Month. This event started out last year with 9 bloggers and has gained momentum with...
Review: Restrooms in Iowa
Knowing where to go if about town and suddenly feeling the necessity of a restroom stop is important. I appreciate being able to make use of facilities if I have an hour walk ahead of me. In the heat of summer this information is...

My Greatest Accomplishment Last Year
I know I should probably have on my list of accomplishments for last year things like - established a wiki for class, answered reference questions via facebook, revolutionized the way graduate students are tracking new research by demonstrating RSS feeds. But no. Really, my greatest accomplishment (with most of the credit to Isabel) was getting shelves installed on the back of stall doors in the women's bathroom...
Just say NO to hand dryers
When it comes to women's bathrooms, I do know more than my boss, who is a man. Interestingly I rarely disagree with him about facilities - because he's usually right and I'm usually wrong. But when it comes to women's bathrooms - I am the expert....
