Jim Harris has started a Data Quality Mad Lib series over at OCDQ Blog. I decided instead of leaving my version of the Mad Lib in his comment section to share it with everyone here. In case you have forgotten how a Mad Lib works, it is a short story or phrase with several key words or phrases missing.

Mad Libs (from ad lib, a spontaneous improvisation) is a phrasal template word game where one player prompts another for a list of words to substitute for blanks in a story, usually with funny results. The game is especially popular with American children and is frequently played as a party game or as a pastime.

A while ago, I came across a unique registration form built by Jeremy Keith for his audio sharing site, Huffduffer. Though it asked people the same questions found in typical sign-up forms, the Huffduffer registration form did so in a narrative format. It presented input fields to people as blanks within sentences (Mad Libs-style, if you will).

Data Quality Mad Libs is a new OCDQ series. For the uninitiated, Mad Libs are sentences with several of their key words or phrases left intentionally blank. Next to each blank is indicated what type of word should be entered, but you get to choose the actual words.

Un des principaux objectifs de la conception de formulaires est de faire en sorte que les utilisateurs puissent accomplir leurs tâches efficacement, dans un délai acceptable tout en ayant une expérience positive. Nous concevons généralement les formulaires avec l'intention d'en améliorer l'efficience tout en réduisant les aspects de complexité et en garantissant une certaine cohérence.

If you had to describe your company's mission in a single sentence, what would your pitch read or sound like? One good way to summarize what you do and boil it down to one clear sentence, in my opinion, is following the advice of Founder Institute founder Adeo Ressi (see above).
