Comment on Simply using Web 2.0 technologies does not guarantee an optimal experience by rainwebs

If you’re an experienced desktop developer you know that it is absurd to think that even with the best Web 2.0 technologies based on AJAX you will ever reach the quality of a desktop application design. What should be the minimum anyway. You don’t have the controls for this. So, you can try to reach something similar, but to go this way is pretty exhausting.

If you take Flex you can have a look at the “old” styleguides from the desktop and may have a 90% solution. So, the real problem is how good can I imitate the desktop to get something that has a user experience we can start to talk about.

But, even then I wonder why we still have nothing better. The desktop metaphor is almost 40 years old (prototypes at PARC, 1969). How many centuries is this in computer years?

Comment on Great information architecture leads the site to behave as the visitor expects by Sarven Capadisli

This is pure BS at its best with no pragmatic approach to solving a problem. How does every site know the exact intention(s) for each of their visitors? Got APML / FOAF? I didn’t think so.

Comment on What personal qualities make a good interaction designer? by Love Umbria

Without humility interaction design can only be great by accident -no matter how much confidence there is.

Comment on Design should do the same thing in everyday life that art does when encountered by Pierre Foucart

Pierre Foucart — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 08:50:04 +0000

Would be correct if “objects” were meant to be art… they are not. They are meant to be functional, to secure you, to guide you. In order to make you buy them or buy more of smthg else.
