Tactile Design Kit, by Megan Erin Miller - 0 views

  • be powerful tools when working with clients on website design and discovery projects. They help create structured limitations, within which productive conversations can take place and decisions can be made faster. Use this kit to help control scope and manage your client conversations, or simply use it as a tool for developing designs and websites faster.

    Might be cool to try with clients or maybe pilot test it on the TIS section of the staff site

Deciding When Graphics Will Help (and When They Won't) - 0 views

  •  
    (I'd like to bridge the gap between UX design/IA and graphic design by getting us thinking more about the usability of images) Images are used for navigation, content, or ornamentation. Navigation and content image offer clear value...ornamentation less so.

Exploration of Leading (Line Height) - 1 views

  •  
    This is an example of how there are rules in design, but with experience, they can be bent or even broken. The leading on this paragraph is so tight, that the ascenders and descenders of letters are touching each other. Accessibility is our goal, of course. I just wanted to share this as an example that is inspiring to me.

      Where's my calculator

    An alternative to reCAPTCHA...still not perfect. It could trip up someone with cognitive disabilities..or pretty much anyone having an off day. But perhaps it's better than asking a blind user to remember an 8 digit sequence with JAWS talking over the recording and having to repeatedly enter/exit forms mode? It could be edited to include an easier sequence which would make it even more accessible for everyone except spambots.

In Search Of The Perfect CAPTCHA - 5 views

  •  
    Information on CAPTCHA's basic philosophy and logic. There are some examples of non-standard CAPTCHA examples.
  •  
    Great post. It perfectly summarizes all my problems with captcha and the fact that there's not yet a good solution. I think that using computing power to recognize spammy submissions and weed them out (based on time it takes to complete the form or the language used in the post or the attached link) would work well for our purposes but ultimately we have to reduce/eliminate the benefit of spamming in order to stem the tide at the source.

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.
