Much more beyond this quote... "When you actually need to travel, your personal devices will keep you on track. For example something the “JITwatch“, or that iPhone app that triggers an alarm when GPS indicates you’re within a particular distance from your destination."... but everything has been done already.

"A jQuery plugin with native animations, auto list navigation, and default application styles for Mobile WebKit browsers like iPhone, G1, and Pre."

"Free set of software tools that enable designers to easily "sketch in hardware". With no programming at all and working in the familiar environment of Flash, designers can hook up a physical sensor (e.g. a knob) and immediately get that knob to control a motor or a video projection. The toolkit works with a wide range of sensors, wireless sensors, input from the Wii Remote, controls motors and LEDs, communicates with MIDI devices, controls sound, graphics, and video in Flash, and communicates with DMX computer controlled lighting equipment, all with a simple drag-and-drop interface (of course, programming hooks are provided as well)."

"The fastest way to improve your interface is to improve your copy-writing."

"Excuse me, I've just finished reading _____ by _____. What should I read next?"

"Dynamic visualizations for the iPhone."

"The power of faceted search lies in the ability of users to create their own custom navigation by combining various perspectives rather than forcing them through a specific path."

For throwing at certain designers. Surprising how poor some cta's are.

AWESOME! Maybe. Haven't read it yet.

"A website showcasing the best (and sometimes worst) in e-commerce design, with a clear focus on the individual elements that make up online stores. We break down retailers and focus on individual user interface elements in order to provide a gallery of inspiration for designers, developers, information architects, and anyone working with online retail."

"Registration keeps out good posters and attracts trolls? Who'd have thought that?"

"The dominance of visually-driven interfaces become especially problematic in the mobile context. Design principles and conventions like WYSIWYG and GUI become brittle and broken on small devices."

"I believe we can get people engaged with digital services in a way that tells them how such services work and why they should care enough to use them. I also believe we can do this without explicitly making them fill out a sign-up form as a first step."

"Advanced search functionality has not significantly developed in years. Poor matches and overwhelming search results remain a problem for users. Perhaps the standard search pattern deserves a new look."

"A jQuery-based, Facebook-style lightbox which can display images, divs, or entire remote pages."

User Interface Design pattern library.

"A lot of traditional IA practice doesn’t make sense anymore. Instead of directly designing an information space, you’re better off designing the rules that underly the generative construction of such spaces."

"An intermediate-level book about interface and interaction design, structured as a pattern language."

"This is an effort to make an easy and simple way to blend the accessibility of html with the animation of flash. JavaScript is then used as the bridge to communicate between the two." Just a proof of concept at the moment.

The very existence of the new, updated book hints that usability guidelines evolve over time. In one of the first chapters, Nielsen makes this explicit by revisiting earlier web usability issues to see how much they've improved in seven years. Each

This is great. Go play.

"Clients love to request [splash pages] and these are the arguments I use to shoot them down"

"London based Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Consultancy who provide user-centred research and design services to clients and partners in the UK and internationally."

"Using a Definiton List and the DOM to create a nice FAQ page where clicking on the DTs (the questions) "toggles" the associated DDs (the answers)."

"It’s time we designers stop thinking of ourselves as merely pixel people, and start thinking of ourselves as the creators of experiences. And when it comes to experience on the web, there’s no better way to create it than to write, and write well."

"A font for programming must be monospaced, extremely readable, and must sharply distinguish between similar characters, such as capital O and zero and the number 1, capital I, and lowercase L. In addition, good programming fonts allow you to view more li

"Each page is based on what I'm calling a 'zooming' layout. By that I mean that the information view and relevance on the page zooms out as the page goes down."

A twist on the Lightbox technique

A pop-up window that doesn't suck.

"Each of these patterns (which are more general) and techniques (more specific) are intended to help you solve design problems."

"You can squeeze in a low budget, quick and basic test anyway, which is much better than not testing at all."
