Skype, Remember The Milk, Interface Design That Makes You Smile
Good interface design interacting with the user ...
My favorite part of Skype’s IM tool is the smiley button. Its placement in the border between the chat pane and the compose box always makes it look like the person you’re talking to just smiled at you. That’s nice.
Makes me smile back. Every time I glance at it. Whether or not there’s a smiley in the chat pane - I’m smiling, and I think that makes for a happier exchange. In the same way people can hear if you’re smiling on the phone.
This morning I signed up to check out Remember the Milk. Their sign-up process has persistent messaging for form field validation like email, password, username, etc. Though the powers of AJAX, it updates as you type. That real-time response made the annoyance of another login/pass form nearly a joy." continued ... (Via MNteractive)
