Portfolio Description

HI! My Name Is,

Raymond

I’m a 60 year old grandad. Recently retired. I spend most days pottering around the garden and cooking. Weekends, I enjoy walking in the countryside with my wife, Carol. I’m currently searching for a walking holiday.

Although generally fit and healthy, I have become hard of hearing, and I’m struggling to accept it. I don’t have a hearing aid and, I often misplace my reading glasses which my wife is always finding for me.

I don’t see myself as old, as I help care for my mother-in-law, Rose.

Final Session Before Getting Out of Bed

From~7 AMTo~12 PM

At Home

I’ll typically have between 5 – 8 sessions before noon, most of the time while still in bed. I tend to consume the Home Page, Weather, and an occasional Video during this time. There is a very high probability my second click/tap will be to Weather.

I’ll typically check in after getting up and taking care of routine chores and after having a meal. I’m looking at the Home page, scanning news posts.

From3:00 PMTo4:30 PM

Late Afternoon Dive-In

Midday, I’ve been scanning headlines all morning. I can see what news is shaping out today, and I’m ready to dive in. I’m consuming individual news posts around topics that interest me, including: Video, Health, Local issues.

From~2 PMTo~5 PM

In the afternoon, I’m checking back into the site 3-4 times, and I’m looking at between 10-13 pages. During this time I tend to go from the home page to an article, then back to the home page, then to another article, creating a looping behavior from home to article back to home. I’m also watching  a couple video’s too.

From6:00 PMTo7:00 PM

At Home

Evening Session Dive-In

This is a high activity period of time for me. I’m diving into articles that I’ve been tracking all day, consuming between 5-7 page views. I’m tracking Weather by refreshing the weather home page directly more than once during this time.

At Home, Typically in bed

2nd Evening Session Dive-In

This is a relatively high activity period of time for me as I wrap up for sleep. I’m consuming between 3-8 pages across multiple categories. I’m highly engaged consuming video beyond 25% play thresholds. I’m utilizing the Home page Weather pages as  continuous jump point to individual pieces of content.

Late Late Session

In some situations I’m up late into the morning hours. Having sporadic sessions lasting 1-2 page views across multiple sessions in the early hours between 1am – 4am. Typically I’m refreshing the home page.

From~6PMTo~4AM

In the evening is when I really have time consume more detailed information about individual headlines I’ve been tracking throughout the day. I’m highly likely to consume 1-2 pieces of video content, and I’m using the Home page and Weather page as landing pages to serve as jump off points to individual pieces of content.

1-2 times per week, I’ll have sessions that run deep into the early morning hours pre-dawn till about 4:30AM. I’m refreshing the Home page.
