Blinded by the user interface(gojko.net)

submitted by gojkogojko(1115) 5 years, 3 months ago

A friend of mine has a problem - his team worked for months on a big system with great success, marvellous technical achievements and a very elegant architecture. However, the users don’t share his enthusiasm. They don’t appreciate the architecture, flexibility and openness to change. Somehow, they seem ‘blinded by the user interface‘. read more...

Why UI design first is important(weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by gavinjoycegavinjoyce(25.7k) 5 years, 4 months ago

"Like most developers, I work with other developers. Most are computer sciency and kick ass when it comes to class design and architecture. The problem with this is that this creates a UI design culture that is not always optimal. There will always be bigger picture architectural design decisions that need to be made. So much of what we write code for doesn't even involve UI, especially since big systems are distributed and service-oriented. But when someone comes to you with something from a competitor site, and says, "I want to do this," starting somewhere deep in the application is the wrong place to go." read more...

Being a responsible open source developer(weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by x.staticx.static(435) 5 years, 5 months ago

I've been following the Office 2007 UI for quite some time, ever since I got my hands on early dog food alphas from the Office team. While some might not call it innovation, it just makes sense to me and I think it's a well designed and thought out piece of work. Yes, there are those that are not going to get it and require gobs of training and scream and kick and moan and want their beloved File menu and toolbar back. There is the other group where we embrace it and actually like it. I'll be the first to *** and complain when I'm building presentations where the freakin' buttons are as I'm still getting used to it, but in the end that's it. I'll get used to it, just give it time. I like the look and think it's a good way to go and frankly, Microsoft made that decision long ago and like or not, we have to adapt and live with it (or not, but that's a different blog post). read more...
