More than 1 year have been passed since GMAIL changed users’ web application, however there are still many sites which are not used this new technology Ajax. It doesn’t mean Ajax is necessary everywhere, that just represents Ajax should be applied where it should be.

1. Form interaction

Form is one kind of slow applications in internet, try to register a mail account or modify the private profile, all this need form to be filled and then submitted.  But how about Ajax’s appearances in this? Quickly update after the instant input and response nearly the same time.

2.Deep tree navigator

3. Instant users communication

4.Vote, choice and grade comment

5.Complicated data filter

6.Auto complete

All above are necessary to apply Ajax into the page.

Web Form Design PatternsIf you want to maximize the revenue of your service you need to maximize completion rates of your web forms. Unless you have some revolutionary ideas to impress your visitors at first glance, it is not enough to simply enable users to sign up on your site. To make it possible for the service to reach a maximal exposure we, designers, need to provide users with a good user experience. We need to invite them, describe to them how the service works, explain to them why they should fill in the form and suggests the benefits they’ll get in return. And, of course, we should also make it extremely easy for them to participate.

Do not believe that Web2.0’s success comes from hard work while creating the original business, What contributes the great success is chance, not another.

 Mofuse推出域名绑定服务,你可以通过m.web20share.com。其实能够提供域名绑定的服务貌似都会很受欢迎的。如之前Yo2提供域名绑定服务(尽管收取一定的费用),还是吸引了不少的用户,Feedsky提供的Feed域名绑定服务,再加上那段时间Feedburner国内无法访问,也是受到很多用户的褒奖。我想要是Feedburner采用新主页后能够同时提供网页Feed和手机访问域名绑定应该很有杀伤力。所以提供域名绑定的服务应该都能得到用户的青睐,不过这些提供域名绑定的功能似乎也比较受GFW的青睐,比如之前的Blogger,Tumblr。

Youtube is the famous online video provider,probably the first market rate in this field, admittedly, youtube is successful for its new idea and great chance. While turns to china, Youku and tudou and other online video service is booming after youtube’s success. However, keep coping is not enough although the work is not easy. The user, the experiences, the interaction, and the culture, all are not easy to copy but only create. So once decided to dive into web2.0, remenber chance and looking for it for ever.

Bill Gates’ web experience: Byzantine, idiotic logic

Posted by Michael Krigsman @ 7:03 am

 

Analyzing IT program management failures with the perfect vision of hindsight often leads the observer through a senseless and convoluted maze of past decisions. Studying the Byzantine and idiotic logic behind many IT failures, one wonders, “How did we get here from there?”

Bill Gates experienced this Tower of Babel when he tried to download two Microsoft consumer products (MovieMaker and Digital Plus Pack).

The seattlepi.com released an internal Microsoft email where Bill described his experience. The email begins with Bill’s summary, emphasizing how program management, the coordinating entity, has failed:

I am quite disappointed at how Windows Usability has been going backwards and the program management groups don’t drive usability issues.

Bill then details the complexities that prevented him from downloading the software:

I decided to download (Moviemaker) and buy the Digital Plus pack … so I went to Microsoft.com. They have a download place so I went there.

The first thing is that FCKeditor is great software as an important part of interaction in web page.

The second is that this editor is hard to download underneath my web environment and narrow band width.

The third is that configure of this editor is easy, just search the topic in google, there would be mountains results about how to set up the editor’s run environment.

Right now i am free after supper, i am full and relax although still in workplace.

So at this time, i am wondering what exactly my dream is? Money, power, reputation, i do not think so. The spirit of life of peace and going a head.

I am thinking, just pondering,

staring the world, 

where is the end of the dream?

It is true that the resume application is of possibility to be influenced by the typeface and the fonts used.

Resumes play an important role when applying for a job.
Unfortunately, many applicants focus only on the content of the resume and not
the physical appearance. The typeface chosen to display the resume not only
influences the physical appearance, but also influences how an employer may
view the applicant. In this study, resumes displayed in a high appropriate
typeface (Corbel), resulted in the applicant being perceived as more
knowledgeable, mature, experienced, professional, believable, and trustworthy
than when displayed in a neutral typeface (Tempus Sans) or low appropriate
typeface (Vivaldi). Moreover, the applicant was more likely to be called for an
interview when their resume was displayed in a high appropriate typeface than
a neutral or low appropriate typeface.

Do you think so? I am not agree and i wont.
User’s interaction behavior is not always right, absolutely, because their target is not correct while suffering the web. Obviously, it is easy to get information from internet in now days, but the interaction method invented some time ago is decided by web designer but not the users. As a result, users fall into the habit of using this style to suffering the web but not another one. The even worse thing is users almost do not know they are planed.

So while the internet’s booming, the number of users is getting more and more, and the situation is beginning to change due to the users are not even satisfied on current pre-planed web, they would like to create the web by themselves, and the WEB 2.0 was born under that environment.

Now, users are getting more and more stronger in the internet, but they still not right enough to lead the current of web, it also need assistance from professional designer on interaction.

The original author is Michael Arrington published in TechCrunch.com 

Nika Smith wrote a post on the Google blog today showing the evolution of Google chat before it launched in early 2006. Google does extensive testing of new products using employees as guinea pigs (see our post on the pre-launch evolution of Gmail) as well as outsiders brought in to test software and interfaces in their usability lab.

I had a chance to see the lab a few weeks ago. It’s a small room with a large flat screen monitor, along with a desk and computer. It also has a number of discrete cameras (and a microphone) that keep an eye on the user herself as well as the screen.

Around the corner is a second room where Google employees can watch people interact with the software real time. The room has a couch and a chair along with two screens and speakers to monitor the lab. See the image to the right.

The Gmail Labs team took us through some of the pre-launch iterations of Gmail chat that were tested in the lab. Most of these weren’t included in the Google post, so I’ve added them below. All of these were eventually abandoned as the team moved towards the much more low profile chat window at the bottom right of the Gmail screen we see today.

“Dave, stop. Stop, will you? Stop, Dave. Will you stop, Dave?” So the supercomputer HAL pleads with the implacable astronaut Dave Bowman in a famous and weirdly poignant scene toward the end of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Bowman, having nearly been sent to a deep-space death by the malfunctioning machine, is calmly, coldly disconnecting the memory circuits that control its artificial »

 

brain. “Dave, my mind is going,” HAL says, forlornly. “I can feel it. I can feel it.”

 

I can feel it, too. Over the past few years I’ve had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory. My mind isn’t going—so far as I can tell—but it’s changing. I’m not thinking the way I used to think. I can feel it most strongly when I’m reading. Immersing myself in a book or a lengthy article used to be easy. My mind would get caught up in the narrative or the turns of the argument, and I’d spend hours strolling through long stretches of prose. That’s rarely the case anymore. Now my concentration often starts to drift after two or three pages. I get fidgety, lose the thread, begin looking for something else to do. I feel as if I’m always dragging my wayward brain back to the text. The deep reading that used to come naturally has become a struggle.

My point is that UI do not mean interaction design, definitely.
Due to the definition of UI in WIKI, it is explained as User interface, right, interface for using.
So, how about the INTERACTION, the same as UI? Not at all.
In my private opinion, the INTERACTION is the progress which happens between the user and the object including people or machine, most times computer.

According to the definition, INTERACTION is much more expandable and border than UI. As result, while doing UI design, it is necessary to take how to improve interaction level into consideration, or the design is just nothing but graphic only. I was asked several times to tell the differences from UI and INTERACTION, at that time i always explained the graphic design and UI design was even not the same thing, on the aspect of interaction definition.

That is my standpoint, UI is just one part of interaction design which contains the whole progress of people to communicate with environment. Do remember, while picking UI out of INTERACTION, it is still a part of INTERACTION.
