Atomic Is The Missing Interface Design Tool In Your Browser - 2 views

  •  
    Atomic is a browser based design application allows graphic/UI designers to create work that can be viewed and manipulated from within the browser. Designers can quickly share their ideas with a link and collaborators can give feedback right inside the product. (link sent by Aaron)

    In-browser design/prototyping tool that could change the way we work in the future.

The Mobile Browser Is Dead, Long Live The App - 7 views

  •  
    If we accept this, are there implications for our aim to design a responsive site?

    Wow, very interesting. The numbers tell the story of the browser use declining. The great increase was social media; people still use the browser on a computer to access the social media site. They don't download a Facebook application to install on their computer-they use the browser. But mobile-wise, that's a different beast. I still think we should create a site that is accessible to mobile devices rather than create an app. I think in the coming years, though, iOS/Android developers will probably be job positions here at UT. Great post, thanks for sharing.

    I take issue with focusing on the amount of time spent in apps vs. mobile web. If you look at the breakdown, 68% of app time is on pure entertainment activities like gaming, social media and YouTube. Which makes total sense that people spend a disproportionate amount of time on those things. Plus that guy looks really annoying!

    RE: Mason-Good points, Señor Mason. But using inflammatory titles gets people reading. My next post will be "LIBRARIES ARE DEAD-EVERYTHING IS ON GOOGLE, ANYWAY".

Mercury Browser - 1 views

  •  
    This is a pretty neat browser for tablets. Lots of customization features and more intuitive than Safari. It's definitely worth a download. They have a free version and a "Pro" $0.99 version. I've used the free version. The pay version has a few extra features that are really not necessary to use a browser; they're really "bloatware" features.

Responsive Inspector - Chrome Extension - 1 views

  •  
    This is a Chrome extension that will resize your browser window to the break points in the code of the current site you are viewing. Those sites without breakpoints show a blank window in the extension. Responsive Inspector is helpful to see all of the breakpoints a particular site uses. Some have several breakpoints, other sites have just a few. It's a good learning tool. It's a wee bit buggy sometimes, but it's being updated regularly. If this link does not work, just search for "Responsive Inspector" in the Chrome browser Extensions.

    Interesting example of resizing layout based on browser width.

Beautifully Designed Website, HUGE IA Effort - 2 views

  •  
    This is an example of a beautifully designed, built and IA'd website. They intend for this website to be a "journey website" in which you spend time exploring the site. The designer must be very happy becase his/her vision was allowed to be shown. The details of the website are too consistent to be a site designed by committee. I'm not commenting on it's compliance or browser capabilities, just the design. Sigh.
