Checking out the new Ubuntu’s website for their OS 10.10 release.
Good content architecture, easy and fast navigation, pleasant design, depurated copy… Chapeau!
Trash compactor
Another simple solution for a universal domestic problem. As usual, the inventor explains that he first design this product for his personal “selfish” use. That’s the way it goes…
A while ago I came across this elegant solution for very common problem. But now I see this talented guy has a site with many inspiring ideas.
Me gusta esta colección de libros. Su nombre, su formato, su diseño y su web.
PD: Ojalá hubiera algo similar en castellano para recomendar a mis alumnos.
Desde que apareció Twittervision allá por el 2007 (me sigue gustando por su sencillez…), cada dos por tres aparecen nuevas maneras de visualizar la actividad en Twitter.
La que he visto hoy me ha parecido muy currada: Tweettracker de MTV.
Fresh and to-the-point copywriting from www.growsup.com. I like it.
PS: Wondering what this service is about…
Looking at how “Chrome OS will probably look like” and wishing it could stay this simple.
I see in this piece a perfect implementation of the “least effective difference principle” as presented in this video (minute 18:24)
“Save” is just highlighted by position and bold.
“New folder” is just differentiated by separation distance.
Three levels of hierarchy using just bold, order and space between elements.
I like the way Dropbox designed its “getting started” functionality. I don’t have stats but I can imagine a lot of users dont read how-to’s, don’t watch product tours or enable complex functionalities when signing up for a new service. They just want to use the product. Trial and error rules.
Sometimes its a pitty because, with a little information on how to use an aplication, a newbie can instantly get more out of a certain product. But that’s the way we use technology.
Dropbox motivates their users with an 250Mb extra space (which costs almost nothing to them) and in return they get more skilled and socially-connected users. Everybody win.
