Plug: Designing Invisible Interfaces Webinar

Dietrich Kappe, Friday, December 14, 2007 @ 2:54 pm

My colleagues Matt Nolker and Shalom Sandalow have put together a nice little webinar entitled "This Won’t Hurt a Bit": Designing the Invisible Interface.. For those of us writing Web 2.0 applications, there are some key insights here, such as: "interacting with the software is not the primary goal or responsibility of the user." So when you use those nifty Ajax widgets, think about whether you are placing a usability burden on the user or are using the power of Ajax to make the interface disappear.
