Re: [IxDA Discuss] Carousel reference implementations?
I think acceleration is a more general issue than just carousel implementation. I am no mathematician. I've been using the Tweener class.

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Tabs for content breadth/depth?
Another thing to note is that the tabbed region will consist of the menu with tab labels and the individual panes as separate entities. In context the label on the tab menu works as a header for the pane. Out of context, in the flow of the HTML document, each pane requires a header. If the end user disables javascript the panes will stack on top of one another. Without a header for each pane, the design pattern will consist of a menu at the top of a number of unlabelled panes. Ensuring each pane has a header label eliminates this problem. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Tabs for content breadth/depth?
I would disagree that tabs must have rounded corners to be recognizable as 'tabs'. Not only are there numerous other methods for creating a tab metaphor (notched corners, color labels along the top or side borders, etc.) but many sites use rectangular borders with effective results. It's harder perhaps but not too difficult. And while the different browsers' implementations of CSS3 rounded corners is imperfect, it WILL make the process easier once fully implemented. I do want to complement DigiKev for including the part about making sure these tab structures degrade gracefully (or are progressively enhanced). Making sure this solution doesn't fall into chaos if javascript is disabled is a key aspect. Marty DeAngelo Director, UX Digitas Health On Tuesday, June 9, 2009, DigiKev ke...@digikev.co.uk wrote: I also write the HTML and CSS for tabs when they are decided upon in an interface. Tabs, in order to look visually like tabs, need to be rounded at the top corners. The tab label needs to be able to expand depending on the font size selected by the end user. This would all be fine if browsers were able to round off corners. Mozilla and Webkit browsers use proprietory code to replicate what CSS3 will allow in interface designs. Internet Explorer unfortunately does not. As a result hacks have to be implemented to add images in the right places to provide rounded corners on each tab. Maybe you would like the button to be more responsive so a different colour is used for the mouse hover state - that is more images. Perhaps a selected state too? More images. This kind of development is costly. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Tabs for content breadth/depth?
Yes I agree I worded the need for rounded corners too strongly before. I do find that rounded corners are requested both by my head of digital and clients frequently. You can get away with other tab metaphors or straight edges but take on board that rounded corners may be requested. I was lucky in a recent implementation [Newcastle under Lyme College tab example] that progressive enhancement was accepted. Take a look at the example in both IE and FireFox/Safari browsers. IE degrades to straight edges whereas the CSS3 proprietary coded browsers round off. I feel with the spacing between tabs and the colouration used this was a successful implementation. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

[IxDA Discuss] Best practices for Country location and languages on Global Websites (was Language Picker)
Jason, Did you read my mind I was just about to send out a similar post. My line of thought was about best practices on how users select countries and languages on global websites. A few questions... Should sites auto detect IP addresses and serve default settings according to country, language? Should users have ability to chose their preferred country and language preferences off a splash page as in Ikea.com on a first visit (and/or subsequent visits) and have the ability to change at will?

[IxDA Discuss] Low Cost, Off Site, Remote Testing Options and Strategies
Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has experience with very low cost, off-site testing software and strategies. In the next few months I may have to conduct several off-site interaction observations but will not be able to travel. At my disposal are some quiet testing rooms equipped with computers that have web cams. I'm looking for suggestions of low cost remote testing software that I could employ to run / record interaction sessions with subjects remotely. Platform isn't so important, but something that can run on both OS X as well as Windows would be nice and cause less of a hassle. In the past I've used Moray, but the price is a bit prohibitive for the kind of low-fi work I'll be doing. In addition to software suggestions, does anyone have any helpful hints about basic strategy? Not being on site, I'll probably use a remote partner to serve as the prompter for the test, but that partner will most likely not have any IxD (or related) training, so I want to keep their role as slim as possible. All ideas and suggestions are welcome. Usually I would be on site doing the setup, and have someone else do the remote recording, but this time I'm flying solo.

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Tabs for content breadth/depth?
Thanks DigiKev for the reminder of how semantic markup will aide in graceful degradation in this case. I too am - or was, until my recent position - the person who not only designed, but also built the interfaces (HTML/CSS presentation). I'm struggling to get that sort of thing done here as our website is nearly 100% built in a CMS, which requires us to use modules that had been developed long before I arrived. And, I would agree with Marty that rounded corners are not necessary from an intuitive as well as design standpoint. Sounds like you agree as well, but have been - like me - regularly requested to incorporate such design treatment. I think tab design should blend well with the design perspective of the site, which means that it could be nearly anything. :) Something I just realized yesterday while I was wireframing a version using tabs is that tabs seem great if there is enough content to fill the space. However, some of my content is quite limited and it feels like I'd be forcing the tab pattern onto something that really doesn't warrant it in the first place. -Jennifer -Jennifer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Low Cost, Off Site, Remote Testing Options and Strategies
UserVue is a very good option. I conducted remote UTs with users worldwide using UserVue! True, it would have been great had it supported MacOS. As for the strategy... I mailed them a basic information guide so that they become aware of what the process will be and how we will proceed with the test. Uservue comes with a telephone dial in as well. So all that is taken care. But this feature works only in the US ( Canada). Again, with uservue, to record the facial expressions is not possible. But apart from that its a great tool to use!

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Low Cost, Off Site, Remote Testing Options and Strategies
Damon, I just reviewed several options for remote user testing in December. Our requirements were: 1. allow user to control the screen 2. record the screen movements 3. video recordings needed to play on WMP or similar 4. Low cost, subscription where you can cancel I looked at: Adobe Acrobat Connect TechSmith - Morae and UserVue GoToMeeting - $49/month. We decided on GoToMeeting. It works great, and you can use the VoIP recording, or just pay for a cheap conference service. I like AccuConference. Email me if you want more help. I did 10 sessions, then I took the videos and audio MP3s and put them together in Windows Movie Maker. There were several steps for each participant, but in the end it was great to capture exactly what they were doing. I also converted the videos to iPod format (as a test. The team didn't need them).

Re: [IxDA Discuss] Best practices for Country location and languages on Global Websites (was Language Picker)
Always ALWAYS do for the user what you can do for them. Auto-detect and provide -some- way to second guess the machine. But don't expect a lot of people to second guess. The best language picker is the one the user never sees. If you can't auto-detect, and you almost always can, a decent picker would be one that makes it easy to find the most common choices. And possible to find the least common. English - French - German - Spanish - Pig Latin - Klingon In the respective languages of course. Followed by a select box with all of them in alphabetical order, even the ones you selected to break out into links. Best of all worlds, I think. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

[IxDA Discuss] Advice on Grid for Visual Studio Developers?
Is anyone aware of a developer's reference on defining a layout grid (or the atomic unit thereof) in Visual Studio? I've tried searching, but am perhaps not using the right search terms. I mentioned the need for all our UIs to be designed according to a grid, and got some deer in the headlights. And when I used 960 site as a means to convey my point, they got it... but responded with that's CSS - for web development. We're building desktop apps, and we're not aware of any way to define a layout grid in Visual Studio - short of manually placing each grid line, for each project -- which we're not going to do.
