UI & UX

I learned a lot from the guest speaker from Meebo.It's interesting how she compared the development of classical music with the development of technology.The last part when she talked about her teal works at Meebo is my most favorite.It is a good example of how to design the interface and I am always interested in design aspects (something like layout, color,pattern); although I am not very good at it. I wrote down some interesting idea that she mentioned; some ideas that I can't agree more.

"Simple unified voice", this is very important when we have to work as a team and have to make the design that represent "Brand." The look and feel of everything that represent our brand and all elements that will create the user experiences must be consistency. I love the word "Simple"; this is very important impact to the user experiences.How can we design the interface that looks cool and also simple to use.

"Things that you can do dose not mean that you should do" , Sounds like me. Yes when I learn some new skill or I know how to do something new, sometime I tend to add all of them to my work; although it's might not necessary at all. Why? I think sometime we want to prove or show that we can do so many things, we have a lot of skills,we are sophisticated. As I said I did that a lot when I learn something new. I think about Flash, a lot of web sites added too many flashy things into their page, when it's doesn't necessary at all and a lot of time this kind of thing distracting or even annoying the users.
