Serious question for computer touchers:

What are the differences, if any, between "user interface" and "user experience"?

I guessed a few things just from the names, but many seem to use these terms interchangeably leading to confusion.

@book They say a picture is worth a thousands words... :neocat_woozy:

Two photos of a train and a bus. The top photo shows a school bus, labeled UI (user interface), parked while a train can be seen in the background. The bottom photo shows the train, labeled UX (user experience), plowing through the bus without slowing down.
