Usability In The News

Usability Quote of the Day

October 15, 2008

The web is more a social creation than a technical one. I designed it for a social effect - to help people work together - and not as a technical toy. The ultimate goal of the Web is to support and improve our weblike existence in the world. We clump into families, associations, and companies. We develop trust across the miles and distrust around the corner. -- Tim Berners-Lee, Weaving The Web (via interaction-design.org)

Rokr E8, touchscreen with haptics and tactile targets

One up on the iPhone interface? ...

"At last, the kind of touchscreen I’ve been waiting for – a full screen touch UI with haptic response and tactile finger targets. This is the kind of touchscreen device you could use with one hand. Look forward to seeing more developments in this direction." (Continued via Small Surfaces) [Usability Resources]
