Website design must be a user-oriented collective effort.
This means that, when possible, the design process must include
participation of a group of representatives from the business or
organization and their beneficiaries, with the common goal of obtaining
maximum satisfaction among users.

The term "webdesign" refers to the discipline
that consists of structuring a website's graphic elements in order to
esthetically express the visual identity of a company or organisation.
This is a visual design step rather than a functional design step (ergonomics, navigation).
The goal of webdesign is to enhance a company or
organisation's image with graphic elements in order to reinforce its
visual identity and invoke a feeling of trust in the user.
Nevertheless, along with ergonomic criteria, a website must above all
meet users' expectations and allow them to easily find the information
they are seeking.

Most Americans still get campaign info on TV |
|
The quadrennial survey by
the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and the Pew
Internet & American Life Project on campaign news and political
communication has found that although most people still rely on their
TV to gather information on political campaigns, the number of those
using the internet for this purpose is constantly increasing.
In
2000, 48 percent of Americans were learning about the campaign mostly
from local TV news, while only 9 percent used the Internet. Four years
later, the numbers were 42 percent for local TV and 13 percent for
Internet. This campaign, Internet usage almost doubled to 24 percent,
together with a 2 percent decline in TV importance.
Perhaps the
second most important finding was that negative views of the decision
to go to take military action against Iraq are at their highest point
since the war began almost five years ago. No less than 56 percent of
Americans think that it was wrong to invade Iraq, while only 36 percent
think it was a good decision.

Guess Who Started to Look like Windows? |
|
It’s Linux, of course, that
started to “taste” and feel like Windows, its everlasting rival. The K Development
Environment announced yesterday the much-anticipated release of the KDE 4.0,
the brand new version of the popular open source desktop environment that will
mark a giant step closer to KDE’s goal of creating a powerful system for an
easy-to-use desktop environment.
From the underlying development
architecture to the user interface, KDE 4.0 includes many significant changes
compared to previous 3.5.x series, changes that made the Linux graphical interfaces
software incorporate a number of features that appear also in Windows Vista and
Mac OS X.
