The User & User Interface
“Web 2.0 is making the Web better for the user. It’s investing in the user and making things easier through RSS, OPML, Ajax, Flash, Laszlo, DHTML, Widgets, Gadgets, Contraptions. The new Web appeals to the senses of the user. We’re still in a primative state with user interfaces on the Web. There’s a lot to learn from what was done on desktop software, but Web UI designers skipped those lessons because they didn’t apply to Web 1.0. Now we all need to listen to the people who built the classic desktop apps to learn the language of Web 2.0.”
