Today’s potpourri happens to be related to understanding or enhancing what your users see (or don’t see):
Browser Size view of HFB
- Google Browser Size let’s you see how much of your web content is visible by users.
- Rocker Lou Reed (of the Velvet Underground) designs an iPhone app for near-sighted users. It basically increases the font size in the contacts application. It appears that Mr. Reed has common ground with older users? (OK, lame attempt to insert the Reed song, “Good evening Mr. Waldheim”). [Wired]
- When minimalism in user interfaces is too much (UXforward)
- Perhaps confirming what we suspected, visual alerts are more disruptive than auditory alerts (LiveScience).
- Lifehacker has an interesting discussion of the merits of multiple-monitors or single big ones as well as a list of useful utilities (I prefer multiple versus a single big one; use 2-24 inches).
