It seems we're approaching a new age here on the Internet. Instead being anonymous, faceless IP addresses, social computing and changing technologies have allowed the lines between the "real" world and the "virtual" world to blur. Web 2.0 helped create a world where your identity is revealed in bits and pieces as you share snippets of your life online - a photo here, a Stumble there, a tweet, a Digg, etc. However, the rise of ...

The transfer of human intelligence to the machine is something the internet makes easy to do. With reCAPTCHA, we keep spammers at bay while helping digitize old books, Amazon's Mechanical Turk lets us crowdsource small tasks to a dynamic human workforce available on demand, and Google Image Labeler makes the tedious task of tagging fun. Now Yahoo is trying to tap into that human machine through their new VideoTagGame, a game that encourages participants to ...

Podcast Channels is a new WordPress plugin designed to fill in some of the gaps in WordPress’s native podcasting support: What do you need to podcast with Wordpress? Nothing — Wordpress puts enclosures in the feed for you. That’s the bare bones and it works well enough. But iTunes metadata would be nice. And, how about different info in different categories? Podcast Channels lets you specify iTunes metadata for the home feed, specific category feeds, ...

Harry Brignull said:
This video gives a perfect example of why prototyping in fireworks is hard work. Fast forward to about 9 minutes in. If you want to create a pop up dialog box (say, a file browser), you have to simulate it using symbols and layers and swap image javascript behaviours. What a palaver.Plus since the prototype is just composed of images, none of the form fields can be clicked or filled in. A lot of work for relatively little pay back.

Menus and dropdowns seem like attractive design choices because they conserve screen real estate while providing users access to a potentially large number of commands. But if you resist the easy out of menus and dropdowns, you may find that your applications become far more usable. Survey the software you use for yourself, both browser- and desktop-based. Think about which applications provide the most invisible, effortless interfaces. I doubt it will be the ones that ...

The app gives you a visual preview of all search results, which is a noticeably better way of searching on ...
