User Interface Designing
The user interface of an application often makes or breaks it. Very simply citing the example of Facebook versus the downfall of Myspace , Orkut etc. Although the functionality that an application provides to users is important, the way in which it provides that functionality is just as important. An application that is difficult to use won’t be used. Period. It doesn’t matter how technically superior your software is or what functionality it provides, if your users don’t like it they simply won’t use it.
I have worked on quite a few web applications including open source projects. I believe in ensuring consistency within applications, setting user interface design standards. My basic rule is to organize the user interface purposefully, in meaningful and useful ways based on clear, consistent models that are apparent and recognizable to users. Listed below are a few user interface designs samples
