The labels are my own invention, as far as I know. I doubt it's completely original though. It would be great to see you at Cast! Hi Lynn,

Thanks so much for the kind words! The labels are my own invention, as far as I know. I doubt it’s completely original though.

It would be great to see you at Cast!

I recognized your name and couldn't place it immediately. Then I figured it out. You recently tweeted on being accepted to present at the CAST 2010 Conference and I in turn had started following you. Back to the blog feedback...I really enjoyed both this entry and the Passive Feedback entry. I see great synergy in my thought processes around feedback although I had not labeled my approaches as Active vs Passive. I am curious, are these labels you have defined? I did some further research and did not find any other references to the labels. Interestingly enough I too am presenting at CAST on a session related to assessing your value as a tester. As part of this session I speak to the techniques in which you can gather feedback. I would like to incorporate your labels of active and passive feedback and provide due credit. I look forward to hearing back from you and hopefully connecting in person at this year's CAST conference. Cheers, Lynn Zachary,

Thanks. This article got my mind working on this daunting task. My challenge is asking for user feedback on broken links (or missing links) on a beta search engine. Granted, these users will be annoyed or turn-off at the time and I am trying to figure out how to gain their empathy. A solid read. Thanks.
