Chapter 9: Human Interface Design

THE APPLE HUMAN INTERFACE GUIDELINES
These principles are published in The Apple Human Interface Guidelines, a book that is available to the general public. Here is a summary of the principles it presents: Simple design is good design. People deserve and appreciate attractive surroundings. A mess is acceptable only if the user makes the mess. Good design must communicate, not just dazzle. Objects should look like what they do so that the user can recognize them and point to them. Consistency should be valued over idiosyncratic cleverness. The transfer of skills is one of the most important benefits of a consistent interface. The environment should appear to remain stable, understandable, and familiar. There should be little or no difference between what the user sees and what the user gets. The user, not the computer, should control the action. The interface should stimulate the feeling that the user is in charge of the system, and it should be fun to use. The user should be kept informed of whats going on via messages (presented in dialog boxes).

The user should be allowed to do anything reasonable and be forgiven if a mistake is made. Generally the interface should use metaphors. These metaphors should be supported with audio and visual effects. Animation, when used sparingly, is one of the best ways to draw a users attention to a place on the screen. There should always be a way out.

Chapter 11: Prototyping

WHY PROTOTYPE?
The following list provides five good reasons to prototype: (verlo) Prototypes have to show: The look and feel of the menus and navigation system The general metaphor for the system The graphic style of the system The branching structure of the system Samples of the media elements that will be in the system Samples of flow of the story through key branching points Samples of any game or VR functionality Samples of any other unique and special features of the system

RULES FOR CREATING INTERACTIVE eCOMMERCE SYSTEMS

Now that we have looked at the requirements of a continuous sales flow and the various kinds of shoppers, it may be possible to summarize what we have discussed in a few rules: 1. Make sure that the controls of the interactive commerce system are obvious and easy to understand. 2. Make sure that the organization of the system is crystal-clear. 3. Provide a path by which first-time users can get the background information they need to feel comfortable making a purchase. 4. Allow the browser an easy method to explore, learn about, and look at products in action.

5. Build in a method for closing a sale for browsers who want to do nothing more than look around. 6. Provide the person ready to buy with a method to get right to the buy decision in the shortest possible number of steps. 7. Offer a method by which the inquirer can be guided to a product by asking a series of questions. 8. Devise an order entry mechanism that will not get in the way of the sales flow.

CONTENT SELECTION
In previous chapters we noted that the content makeup of many Web sites is similar. We moved from promotional movie sites to entertainment sites and found that we were identifying a set of content areas that can or should appear in almost all of these sites. The areas we identified were: Promotional materials Archives Related content Communication The Adventure Merchandising
