'techno Shabbat' and the need to take a break from the constant stream of data from @jennirsl

Gizmodo, the popular gadget site and pageview king of Gawker Media, debuted a new look last night that they’re calling HD view, and it’s big. Not big in the grand scheme of things — big in the number of pixels it takes up. Whereas most websites top out at around 1000 pixels in width, Gizmodo HD stretches like Plastic Man, with photos and videos stretching wider and wider as the browser window does too. On my 1900-pixel-wide monitor, pages like this one (photo-dominant) and this one (video-dominant) both resize all the way to blowout width. Call it the doublewide approach.

wow, good on Microsoft, some really nice new CSS properties: looks like it might ship in IE10

Back in the early days of PC computing, we were interested in how people used all those options, controls, and settings that software designers put into their applications. How much do users customize their applications?

@stugoo @withoutnations - just a bit odd

For designers, it’s easy to jump right into the design phase of a website before giving the user experience the consideration it deserves. Too often, we prematurely turn our focus to page design and information architecture, when we should focus on the user flows that need to be supported by our designs. It’s time to make the user flows a bigger priority in our design process.

My friend, the amazing designer and facilitator, Gail Taylor, often exhorts people to find the simplicity embedded in complexity. I’ve been puzzling over this advice over the past few weeks, as I’ve been reflecting on our own practices for working with groups on complex problems. I recently came across two resources that I’d like to share.

Useful tips and resources to give pupils the computing skills they really need

“I love “content-out” as a strategy…setting a series of breakpoints based on ems (based in turn on font size) could create lovely context-based layouts that move fluidly from one state to another. They won’t match with device sizes but they won’t be trying to. There is a lot to think about and play with there.”
