BBC Design Process

I mentioned this document in the lecture this week. The Beeb redesigned their web site in 2002. There’s a large (8 MB) pdf file floating around on various web sites which documents the design process they went through. This is a lot more involved than the methodology we cover in the lecture, but they had a much bigger problem.

The document is called “The Glass Wall”, but rather than link to it directly, I’ve linked to a Google search instead. It is a big read, but worth the effort if you are into web design.

I promise that this one will not be in an exam question!

F-Shaped Browsing?

I don’t want to sound like a Nielsen disciple, but he’s got a recent study tracking how users’ eyes move around web pages which agrees with the lecture about navigation and user behaviour.

From the Alert Box web site read: F-Shaped Pattern For Reading Web Content. There is an archive of previous columns.

I’ll try really hard to post something else next time.
