Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
The Web site is also not accessible for those with certain disabilities, which could be a major factor in some instances. Also - when I composed and attempted to send a message regarding my concerns, the content was completely erased and unsuccessfully sent.

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
I liked this interface. Not that we have to get rid of clicking. For a button that is still a very good interaction. The experiments show a few nice complimentary interactions to make information and functionality accessible while keeping all parts in a logical context. - Yohan . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
We are so condition for so many years with mouse clicking to confirm our action. Without mouse click it doesn't give user the confirmation status of his/her action or selection. Agree with Kumar, it might be more suitable for gestural inputs like VR, immersive environment, where you use hand gesture to move things.

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
It really caused trouble when I wanna move cursor across the screen, for example from the top to the bottom. Just too sensitive. Unexpected results frequently occured by moving mouse. But it's definitely a new idea which may shed light on the interactive ways, and can be certainly improved. Alethea . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
I like it as a concept, but I don't think it will be usable for the web anytime soon. The navigation elements move avay from the original location. I wantet to click The click ergonomy and ended up on the Click history page. With some research and testing on mouse movements from element to element it will become a lot better. Right now it requires a clear path between all the various navigation elements. Any thoughts regarding how to put a no click interface to use?

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
I'd have to agree. The lack of user control of what is displayed is nerve-wracking. That coupled with the speed of transition, as well as a considerable lack of clues of the 'hotspots' and their effects makes me want to, well, click to navigate out of the interface. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
I love it! It pushes the ideas to certain boundaries. Now manufacturers of mouse can forgo the button altogether! I heard from a colleague that there was a PBS documentary about changing the paradigm of human computer interaction and it showed many examples of exploring those ideas. I think this site does exactly that! I also love the recordings. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
Any thoughts regarding how to put a no click interface to use? There was one aspect of the no-click interface that worked for me: the timed trigger button. As you hover over the button, it fills itself with a darker color like a progress bar and then triggers when the progress reaches the full point. It gives you a little bit of a comfort delay instead of the BAM! BAM! BAM! of the rest of the experience (the first BAM! made me jump out of my seat... not fun.). So I guess it seems to me that a slower, more fluid approach might make more sense, in which the interface slowly reveals something about what is going to happen if you move to a particular region, but allows you time to move out in case you didn't really want to do that. I move my mouse cursor around to random spots on the screen so I could imagine myself accidentally moving to or hovering over a region that enacted something that I really didn't want to do. It brings up some good questions, however. evan k. stone | ux | dragnet solutions, inc. Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)! To post to this list ...

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
Good Points: 1. It was interesting way of going through information Bad Points: 1. If response after gesture takes too long, user doesn't know if he did the right thing. 2. Two of the tests failed to load in my browser and there was no way for me to know what to do next, because there was no feedback and no way for me to tell the system that the test didn't load. 3. Why SHIFT+Tab and not just Tab. Actually I did use SHIFT+Tab and it jumped but as soon as I started typing, it jumped back because my mouse was still hovering over the first field. Device conflict? Funny thing was, that when I left the site I found myself doing mouse- overs on other sites and waiting for something to happen. :) Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
Hey, I was about to dig out an older discussion, I didn't know there two, and the fact that all three happens in September. Spookey... However, I think that the concept is far more interesting in the light of later touch-screen, multitouch and gesture technology. We might see some of the concept come down to this. --- Håkan Reis Dotway AB +46(768)510033 My blog || http://blog.reis.se My company || http://dotway.se Our conference || http://oredev.org - See you in 2008 On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 17:25, Jack Leon Moffett [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: I'm not trying to kill the discussion, but thought people may be interested in knowing that this was brought up at least twice before on the list.

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Interesting interface design
Uncomfortable is a good word. It isn't the navigation and not-clicking that cause it for me. It is the way the menus and text swirl nto view with some of the angled shapes that then form the background color fields. I wonder if that transition were more subtle if it would be more effective. The first couple of times I wanted to click out of a reaction to the design and not because I wanted to click. It was more a clicking in visual self-defense.

I don't find it uncofortable, but there aren't any cues to let you know what you'll get a reaction to (i.e. the equivalent of more content on click), and what you won't. I don't miss clicking per se, I miss knowing what's just static, and what's a hotspot. The advantage of clicking as well is that you are making a statement that you want the new content, not just that you happen to have moved themouse there. *Nick Gassman - Usability and Standards Manager - http://ba.com * * I vote for reply-to to go to the list* Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
