I love this feature ! *Stage wisper, a bit of inspiration for further developments *:
Will it be possible to use thoose streams as a global wiki's news stream ? Including comments, followed page modifications, goup exchanges, etc. Like in Buddypress for example. http://design-keys.org/activity/ http://buddypress.org/community/activity/ * *Going further, a few time ago during UX workshops we imagined an "all is manageable within the timeline" way of having regular user interacting with content. The use case is simple : it is to be used when the user want to see what is new today on the network and to comment the new content - see what new today on the timeline - interact with content staying into the timeline - continue reading what's new today on the timeline Here is the document : http://www.slideshare.net/thibautdeveraux/design-platform-v2-proposition , going to "l'atelier" (in french sorry, it is a long time I'm supposed to make an english version of this concept with enhanced graphics for sharing, always need more time ^^) The limit of such system is the javascript amount a page can handle before becoming to slow. Yet it may give some inspiration. * About the UX of the proposition* : I like it, it sounds good as it is keeped simple. Maybe a few questions about details : 1/ Is it necessary to add the yesterday, today, title between posts ? http://screencast.com/t/RJsu44z7bUSG There is already a "posted xx time ago" and the most immediatly usefull for the user may be more the last post he have read before than the day it was posted. 2/ Is there a special reason to have changed the order of the "send, privacy, references" icones that are used left to right on facebook, to right to left here ? Here : http://screencast.com/t/dhpNDfZ1 Facebook : http://screencast.com/t/Gk2BhGld3 There is no shame to use the same configuration. ^_^' Being like ergonomics users are used to is a good thing. 3/ Why is there "140" printed on the top right corner ? http://screencast.com/t/gOjv4WGe5VVQ Is it because messages are limited to 140 caracters ? I don't really understand why there should be such a limitation on wikis that can be used for project management, where people may have important things to share and explain ? Also, having text only small boxes is already limitating lengh of 90% of the messages people naturally enter. 4/ Why is it always printed "changed status" ? http://screencast.com/t/cBqylv4X Is status notion is a concept that fit with all the use case of this feature ? For example what if people are not be thinking they are updating a status, yet are thinking they are sharing a message with the community ? Also, the act of seeing a small text right near an other user portrait let people know this is a message from this persone. This may be enough information, why specifing ? The only reason I see for specifing it, is when there is an usage for it. For example if this is a link to a specific context zone of the wiki where the action took place. it may be a groupe or the user profile. 5/ About the way items are displayed in a page creation case : http://screencast.com/t/ue1Ogbd5gf Why changing the order of message items between a user message case and a page creation case ? http://screencast.com/t/oDJij00HEN I would let's the user read the flow in the same way for each item. Eye habits. Example : http://screencast.com/t/nxWatyS9g 6/ Why adding again the information about the message type near the portrait ? It is already in text and, anyway, I'm not sure the user need it at all. http://screencast.com/t/9UdhOgB4uR7j http://screencast.com/t/ACMMR0S15Q Here is a proposal that may be simpler. Of course it depends on the answers to my question because I can't know evrything about the specifications : http://screencast.com/t/DNq3MVwLU Have a nice day Thibaut DEVERAUX Tel : +33 (0)6 75 51 20 80 [email protected] http://design-keys.org [email protected] http://bricks-studio.com 2010/11/30 Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) <[email protected]> > Hi, > > Please provide feedback for this User Status proposal: > http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/UserStatusProposal > > Other references: > * Proposal Code: > > http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/UserStatusPrototype > * Mail [Investigation] User Statuses: > http://markmail.org/thread/65j5pc2ymmntujt3 > > Thanks, > Caty > _______________________________________________ > devs mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs > _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
