Beyond The Mobile Web By Yiibu 110412113255 Phpapp01

Slides from my class on January 14 at General Assembly in London about designing for multiple devices. ABSTRACT The rise in mobiles and tablets have changed the way we consume and interact with content, but also the way we design and what we base our design approach on. This class will teach you about the shift in user expectations, behaviour- and consumption patterns and what that means for designing products that will be used on multiple devices. Coming out of it you'll be equipped with guiding principles and tools to tackle the multiple device jungle.

The document discusses how mobile devices enable new experiences and applications beyond the devices themselves. It notes that long queues at device launches provide opportunities for user research. While devices have impressive numbers of apps and downloads, people use apps for communication, entertainment, work and a variety of other aspects of modern life. The document advocates developing for the open web in addition to apps so content can reach all devices and browsers.

The document discusses designing for multiple devices. It covers device usage patterns, implications for design, and different approaches like responsive design versus bespoke mobile sites versus apps. It provides statistics on mobile usage and analyzes usage patterns across devices. It also discusses responsive design techniques like defining grids and content stacking strategies. Considerations for native apps on Android versus iOS are also reviewed.

The document discusses how technology is increasingly woven into everyday life and the physical world. It describes several new technologies like smart connected objects, self-driving cars that collect data, smart forks that track eating habits and communicate with apps. It argues that the web needs to embrace these new technologies and find ways to connect physical systems to provide more seamless experiences, rather than trying to compete with native apps. The future may involve the web enabling discovery of physical objects and powering connections between various systems and technologies.

The document discusses designing for multiple devices. It notes that mobile device usage is increasing dramatically and surpassing the global population. People use their mobile devices in many contexts throughout the day for a variety of tasks. As a result, designers must consider how to provide equal and continuous experiences across different devices. Approaches include responsive design, which adapts content based on screen size, and apps, which are focused on specific platforms. The document also highlights important differences to consider between designing for Android versus iOS.

Presented at Innotech Portland on April 23rd. My attempt to talk about why mobile is important and current trends in mobile.

Slides from my part 2 class of Designing for multiple devices run at General Assembly in London on the 18th of March 2013. ABSTRACT In Fundamentals for Designing for Multiple Devices, we covered the basics of responsive design and mobile apps (for both Android & iOS). We also looked at how user expectations have shifted behaviour, how consumption patterns have changed and what that has meant for designing products that will be used on multiple devices. This follow-on session will take outset in the guiding principles covered in the previous class and take a closer look at: - common challenges faced when designing for multiple devices and how to address them - content strategy and hierarchy across devices - navigation patterns for responsive design - app structures and navigation patterns - how to test both responsive sites and apps

1. The document discusses how communicators are utilizing the mobile web to connect with audiences on the go through their cell phones. 2. It explains that the mobile web is a new way of communicating that focuses on context and immediacy over just content. 3. Examples are given of political campaigns and politicians using the mobile web to share information with and stream live to their constituents.

The document discusses how latency and poor user experience can negatively impact systems in the cloud. It emphasizes the importance of monitoring from an end-user perspective to identify sources of latency. The key is to continually monitor all parts of the system, including individual transactions, infrastructure components, and end-user experience to drive the right actions that improve performance and optimize systems deployed in the cloud.

Here are a few key points about using Twitter to promote books: - Twitter allows you to engage directly with readers and build anticipation/interest for a book in a fun, interactive way. By tweeting excerpts and snippets, you keep people coming back for more. - It can gain significant attention and publicity, as the author who tweeted a novel found. Unconventional promotional tactics tend to get noticed. - Readers on Twitter are a targeted audience already interested in books, authors, and pop culture discussions. Promoting on Twitter helps reach these engaged readers. - The challenge is keeping tweets brief and compelling enough to maintain interest over time. You need a strategy for rolling out content in a way that leaves

The document discusses how the context in which mobile devices are used has become increasingly complex and unpredictable. Guidelines from a few years ago around mobile design being context-driven are now outdated, as mobile and Internet-connected devices have proliferated and their uses have diversified. Over 5 billion people now own mobile devices, which for many are their primary or only means of Internet access. This shift has dramatically changed user behavior and expectations.

The document discusses how responsive design begins on the server by adapting to different devices. It notes that as more devices have become capable of accessing the web, including lower-cost smartphones and basic phones, the definition of what constitutes a "smartphone" has expanded. It argues that while there is diversity in mobile devices, many lower-end devices still provide web access and basic smartphone functionality at an affordable price for many users.

This document discusses improving mobile user experiences. It notes that mobile is the primary way people access the internet in some countries. Constraints on mobile like form factor and battery life must be considered. Simple interfaces work best for mobile. Native apps have advantages over mobile web, but the line is blurring. Windows Mobile was replaced by Windows Phone 7 which improved the user experience. The document emphasizes understanding user behaviors and focusing on usability.

The document discusses designing experiences for multiple devices. It notes that users now own and switch between multiple devices throughout the day, from phones to tablets to wearables. As such, designers must consider how to provide equal, continuous experiences across different platforms and prioritize building modular content that can be adapted for any device or input method. Navigation and usability must work seamlessly regardless of screen size or input type.

Taking messaging forward, with Mozilla values. The document discusses the history and current state of messaging technologies and services. It argues that centralized commercial systems lack universality, allow central control without regulation, and don't always prioritize user needs over corporate incentives. The document proposes focusing on strategic markets where Mozilla's values matter, understanding users, leveraging Firefox, experimenting with new interfaces, and promoting open standards and decentralization through new messaging APIs and experiences. The overall goal is to maximize impact in shaping the future of messaging while embedding Mozilla's principles.

Slides from my Device Agnostic Design talk at UCD London http://2014.ucduk.org/session/device-agnostic-design-how-to-get-your-content-to-go-anywhere/ ABSTRACT: There was a time when we did glossy page designs and when those designs were pretty much what we saw in our desktop browsers. With the introduction and rise of smartphones, tablets, phablets there isn’t one view of our designs anymore. Instead, what we create needs to be able to adapt in a way that is suitable for the device as well as where and how it’s being used. With responsive design we’ve learnt the basics of how to adapt content, interactions and layouts so that it works across devices. But with further developments in technology and screens, our content is going to go anywhere. As a result we need to move away from designing for specific devices to solutions that are device agnostic. For us as UX designers this means means letting content rather than devices guide layouts, and also increasingly moving away from designing and wireframing pages to focusing on the modules that those views are made up of. But there are other aspects to consider in device agnostic design. In this talk I walk through why device agnostic design matters, what it means and how we go about it.

The document discusses device agnostic design, which aims to create content that can be accessed and displayed well on any device. It emphasizes building with reusable modular components rather than bespoke designs for each device. The key aspects are understanding content stacking strategies across screens, using content-based rather than device-based breakpoints, and designing interactive elements that work for both touch and non-touch interfaces. The goal is to provide users with a continuous experience regardless of the device they use.

The document discusses the diversity of mobile devices globally and how this diversity is likely to persist. It notes that while some designers may choose to only design for the newest, most powerful platforms, an inclusive approach is needed to provide accessibility while still ensuring a great user experience across a wide range of contexts, inputs, and users. Context, attention, and usability have changed as mobile devices have become more capable and integrated into more aspects of our lives.

This document discusses the diversity of mobile devices and user experiences globally. It notes that while smartphones have gained popularity in some markets, global smartphone penetration remains only around 23% and the mobile experience varies greatly depending on location, device capabilities, and network infrastructure. This diversity is likely to continue as new platforms and low-cost devices disrupt the market.

An overview of the current state of Mobile UX, presented to attendees of Flash Camp Manchester by Jerome and Antony from Ribot

No matter how much we try to put ourselves into a mobile first mentality, it is hard for us to do so fully. Our access to PCs prevents us from experiencing mobile the way many in the world do. We're currently fighting for parity among experiences. We're arguing that the mobile version shouldn't be a dumbed down version of the desktop site. But we've set our sights too low. In a true Mobile First world, the mobile version should be the best experience. Mobile shouldn't just match the desktop experience, it should exceed it.

The document discusses how rapid technological disruption and the democratization of knowledge through the Internet have challenged traditional models of design, business, and control over products and ideas. It argues that successful design going forward will require flexibility, simplicity, enabling user customization and experiences rather than strictly defined products, and building platforms that can evolve beyond their original contexts. Complexity and interdependence may no longer confer advantages if they limit responsiveness to constant change.

The document discusses how rapid technological disruption and the democratization of knowledge through the Internet have challenged traditional models of design, production and consumption. It notes that users can now easily adapt, improve and compete with products in ways that were previously impossible. As a result, the most successful designs going forward may be those that are simple, flexible and enable users to create their own experiences, rather than fully defining the experience themselves. Complex, tightly controlled systems may be more vulnerable to abrupt changes, so the best designs will set the stage for users but not dictate every aspect of the experience.

The document discusses designing experiences for multiple devices. It notes that people use different devices throughout the day, switching between them, so experiences need to be consistent across platforms. It also highlights that mobile experiences now drive a large portion of online activity and commerce. Designing for the capabilities of each device, rather than just focusing on mobile, is important to provide the best user experience on all platforms. Human: Thank you, that is a concise 3 sentence summary that captures the key points of the document.

The document discusses how mobile devices and connectivity are changing consumer behavior and opportunities for brands. It notes that people now spend more time online than with traditional media, and that mobile access allows people to be constantly connected. Brands can take advantage of this new context by creating mobile apps and content that provide immediate utility and engage customers in conversations. A "moveable brand" meets customers on mobile platforms and enhances communication through contextual and social interactions to build loyalty over time.

Digital natives, having grown up with technology, think and process information differently than previous generations. As they enter the workforce, companies will need to adapt to their preferences for sharing, collaboration, and fast-paced, visual, and interactive digital environments. Providing digital native employees with the software tools they are accustomed to using, such as social networking, wikis and blogs, will be important for companies to attract and retain top talent.

The document discusses trends in digital reading and mobile technology and their impact on libraries. It notes the rise of e-readers like Kindle and discusses how libraries must adapt services like providing access to digital books and resources. It emphasizes that libraries' core roles are providing information, experiences and engaging communities both online and offline.

The document discusses the need for ubiquitous and holistic information architecture across channels to create integrated experiences for users. It notes that information is blurring the lines between digital and physical experiences, and that users expect consistency as they transition between platforms. To meet these expectations, information architecture must be designed holistically rather than by channel, and must focus on the overall user journey rather than individual touchpoints. Bridges between experiences like on-ramps and off-ramps are needed to make information architecture truly integrated.
