An exciting Sydney web standards group meeting coming up on Tuesday 8 October. We have two great presentations on two diverse topics!
Does one size really fit all? Most interfaces are designed to suit some users and their contexts more than others. However, as we design we often have to throw out solutions that could encompass other user populations and contexts, we do this so we can build for the "majority" of users. But what happens to these discarded designs?
Is there a way we can integrate them into the overall system and design an interface that is everything to everybody?
Well it's not easy but by designing a degree of personalisation into the system we can offer the user the ability to access and craft their own versions of those alternatives. We allow them to create a context that suits them while giving them the ability to create their own information architecture.
New developments in web standards like HTML 5 and CSS 3 are providing designers and developers with better tools for creating web sites and applications with a rich user experience. This presentation will showcase the latest features currently being implemented in browsers, including new JavaScript APIs, improved multimedia support and CSS.
