XForms and XML Events Are W3C
Recommendations
10/29/2003 12:11 AM2003-10-14: The World Wide Web Consortium today released XForms 1.0
and XML Events as W3C Recommendations. The specifications have been
reviewed by the W3C Membership, who favor their adoption by industry.
Written for authors and implementers alike, XForms is the new
generation of Web forms. XForms separate presentation and content,
minimize round-trips to the server, offer device independence, and,
using XML Events, reduce the need for scripting. Read the press
release and testimonials and visit the XForms home page. (News

Events 4 rebuilt for FileMaker Pro 7
07/20/2004 08:10 AMWaves in Motion has released a new version of
Events 4.0, its
plug-in that allows FileMaker Pro developers to build triggers that
initiate almost any action within the application. The new version has
been rebuilt from the foundation up for full compatibility with
FileMaker Pro 7.0 and adds such new features as the ability to send
e-mail and attachments and support for multiple tokens. Upgrades from
version 3.0 start at US$77 for the first user, while the full version
starts at $129, with price breaks available for multiple copies of
either. Events 4.0 requires FileMaker Pro 7 and can be downloaded as a
time-limited demo from the Waves in Motion Web site.
World Events Database
World Events Database
08/10/2004 05:43 PMHere's something they need to add to Wikipedia: a world events
database. So many notable things happen in the world from day-to-day
that it'd be nice to have a database of them, a running record, a
blog, if you will.
Wikipedia has yearly and daily entries, like Laci
Peterson murder trial (actually, I don't need to know this,
because my wife is glued to CourtTV and keeps me updated whether I
like it or not, but it's an example...). With a flat database table
and a good keywording system, I could look these all up and connect to
the related Wikipedia entries.
Thoughts on this?

"I am organising a robotics

guest
appearance by a Dalek.
Meanwhile, Malika Andress of The

In the fall of 2003, the Many-to-Many blog
announced Andy Baio's
upcoming.org, a collaborative event
calendar. Ray Ozzie
noticed, and
asked a bunch of questions about calendar formats and mechanisms for
syndicating and aggregating events. I
weighed
in with some examples of the XHTML microcontent techniques that I
was (and still am) exploring. But eighteen months later it's clear
that we were just philosophers debating how many angels can dance on
the head of a pin. None of our arcane technical discussions really
mattered because upcoming.org hasn't gone viral the way
del.icio.us did. This isn't just my own
observation. Recently someone in Edinburgh
asked: "Why is upcoming.org not
more popular?"

Alex Kolesnichenko has a proposal for RSS 1.0 and Atom that is

Syndication experts? How is this approach? Is there a simpler way
to do it?

User Experience MX
03/13/2003 10:22 AMThe new Macromedia site is
simple and clean and I like it, though I'm finding it takes me more
steps to find things they used to have on the front page of their
site. Granted, the home page used to be cluttered and offered 50
options of where to go.
The most interesting thing I found on the new site was their new commitment to user experience issues as a
cornerstone of their business.
While I can picture the marketing team sipping lattes in their "war
room" with a huge banner carrying their new slogan "great experiences
build great businesses", it's refreshing to hear a major web firm
(especially one known for reducing usability in the past
*cough* skip intro *cough*) realize the importance of user experience
on their bottom line.
Adap
tive Path has been preaching this for the past couple years, but
it's nice to see a major corporation listening.

Google Maps and user experience
Google Maps and user experience
04/06/2005 12:06 PMEarlier this week, Google integrated their recently acquired Keyhole technology into Google
Maps, allowing the user to toggle between the abstract map view and a satellite view. The addition was pre
tty big news, and I was pretty excited
when I saw this feature, as were many others. Matt
Haughey even did a Maps/Flickr mashup in creating a memory map of his
childhood stomping grounds; others followed suit.
The ability to view satellite images online has been around for
years in the form of Microsoft's Terraserver (and also on
a mapping site that I can't locate right now...I swear Mapquest let
you switch back and forth between the two views, but I can't find it),
so this really isn't anything new. Terraserver lets you zoom in/out,
move around the map, and view other versions of the map (they have a
topological version), and I know that many of the people who are so
excited about Google Maps are familar with it. So why is everyone so
excited about it?
Part of it is Google's involvement...they draw a crowd of attention
anytime they do anything these days. But it also has a lot to do with
someone I wrote about a couple of years ago: it's the user experience, stupid:
Robert Morris from IBM argued last year at Etech 2002
that -- and I'm paraphrasing from memory here -- most significant
advances in software are actually advances in user experience, not in
technology. Mosaic was not an advancement in technology over TBL's
original browser. Blogger is a highly-specialized FTP client. IM is
IRC++ (or IRC for Dummies, depending on your POV). The advantages that
these applications offered people were user experience-oriented, not
technology-oriented.
The satellite feature on Google is no exception. They took
something that's been around for years, made it way easier to use
(reposition & zoom maps without reloading, pinpoint addresses and
routes onto the satellite imagery, toggle between sat and road maps,
map size automatically scales to the browser window, etc.), and
suddenly this old thing is much more useful and fun to play around
with. Ajax is the underlying technology (which isn't new either)
for many of the notable Google Maps features, but how Google used it
to make a useful user experience is the real story here.

Updated Longhorn User Experience:

05/24/2004 09:17 AMThis preliminary chapter from the updated Windows User Experience

commands, and an aggregated view of all such data across all
Windows-based applications.
Google's switch to answers.com was
driven by user experience
Google's switch to answers.com was
driven by user experience
03/14/2005 04:25 PMLast week, I wondered aloud
whether Google's switch from dictionary.com to answers.com for their "definition"
links was driven by concern for their users or was just a business
deal:
The cynic in me feels like money had to have changed
hands in order for this to have happened (maybe Google is an investor
in GuruNet, maybe GuruNet paid for that placement), but the optimist
in me says that Google is still a weird little company where the
members of project teams can stumble across a better resource that
will make their users happier and more productive and implement it on
the live site quickly, even if the company that provides that resource
could be considered a competitor.
Marissa Meyer, Product Manager for Google, was kind enough to
respond to my query about it:
This decision was driven off of concern for our user
experience. We are not paying answers.com for this service nor are
they paying us. They were willing to work with us and design a website
that we felt represented an improvement for our users over what was
offered on dictionary.com (no pop-ups, dense information
presentation).
That a $50 billion American company is so focused on the experience
presented to its users, well, it's pretty impressive.
Improving the User Experience Online for

Improving the User Experience Online for
Library Users
06/28/2004 10:08 AMI would love to get a grant to have 37signals design an online
library catalog. I've been reading their book Defensive Design for
the Web: How To Improve Error Messages, Help, Forms, and Other Crisis
Points because I'm redesigning our merged web
site/extranet/intranet, and while most of the suggestions in the book
are fairly intuitive, most of us don't take the time to add in all the
little niceties and user-supportive framework. It's a very quick read
and an easy ILL for library webmasters.
It looks like I'll be using ColdFusion on a Windows server for the
new MLS site, so if anyone has suggestions for CF-based aggregators,
RSS-generators, bulletin boards, blogging software, and kitchen-sink
functionality, I'd love to hear them.
