Think Interact: Disc player has less memory than goldfish
http://thinkinteract.blogspot.com/2010/05/disc-player-has-less-memory-than.html
Sunday, 2 May 2010. Disc player has less memory than goldfish. Back in March I noted a number of interaction design faults in the PURE Chronos CD Series II DAB/FM/CD/MP3 Stereo Clock Radio. Most of them were minor irritations. Now I have discovered something really stupid. The machine plays CDs, but retains no memory of where it was when it stopped playing. Here is a typical scenario. You are listening to a CD. In this illustration, track 6 is about to play. You switch to the Radio (using the Source.

Think Interact: Hypertext anyone? (Kindle disappointments)
http://thinkinteract.blogspot.com/2011/03/hypertext-anyone-kindle-disappointments.html
Thursday, 10 March 2011. Just before Christmas, I bought a Kindle device (the one with free 3G as well as WiFi). There are many good things about it, not least the fact that thanks to its capacity I can slip far more books into my jacket pocket for a train journey than I could previously carry in a large suitcase. The Tuning of Place: Sociable Spaces and Pervasive Digital Media. Is a very interesting book by Richard Coyne. It seems to me that a major publisher like MIT Press has no business producing a s...

Who said Apple can’t innovate? | Hyperion Interactive Blog

Design, Identity, Interaction. Laquo; British Design Legend dies. Microsoft and Nokia – A good time for change. Who said Apple can’t innovate? June 20, 2013. Among the many highlights of Apple’s World Wide Developer’s Conference. Which incidentally sold out in 17 seconds) one particular moment stood out. No, it wasn’t iOS 7 or OS X Mavericks. Or even the beautifully designed Tron-esque Mac Pro. It was Phil Schiller’s comment on the unveiling of this seductive and much anticipated new workstation.

Think Interact: Tag cloud becomes a motif
http://thinkinteract.blogspot.com/2010/03/tag-cloud-becomes-motif.html
Monday, 22 March 2010. Tag cloud becomes a motif. The tag cloud becomes a motif. BBC News 19 February 2010. It is not necessary to have the concept of a tag cloud or word cloud to think of scaling words in relation to the number of their appearances in a text, but you can be pretty sure that the look of this display behind Gordon Brown is symptomatic of a fashion derived from the current presence of tag clouds on so many websites. A gallery of tag clouds is here. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Think Interact: Information and junk
http://thinkinteract.blogspot.com/2010/04/information-and-junk.html
Wednesday, 28 April 2010. JISC, the Joint Information Systems Committee, runs a very useful service called JISCmail which enables the academic community to set up, manage and interact with a whole range of email lists. I regularly use it to correspond with the PhD-Design, Computer Arts and many other groups. The JISCmail page with disastrous giant graphic. Sanity restored: the same page after blocking graphics in the browser options. Designers (I speak as one) can be the enemy of usability.

Think Interact: March 2010
http://thinkinteract.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 22 March 2010. Interacting with Pure Chronos CD radio. PURE Chronos CD Series II DAB/FM/CD/MP3 Stereo Clock Radio. I recently bought a combined CD player and DAB/FM radio to use in the kitchen. It has an alarm function too but that was not a priority. Location of the on. Button. The machine has a low energy standby mode, so the usual way to turn it on or off is to press the button marked Standby. Delay in response of the on. Button. The machine is in standby. You press the Standby. Button (top-le...
