Indeed he is THE authority on UI as applied to web sites, and everyone who wants
to become a good web designer absolutely must read his books. (You will not
learn any technical stuff from them like javascript, PHP or Ajax, but you will
learn a very great deal about the look and feel of successful web sites.) Not
surprisingly, he seems to be rather knowledgable about other forms of UI too,
and his review shows that Windoze 8 is even worse than I imagined it could be.
Completely and utterly useless for any serious work, where you invariably need
multiple windows on the screen(s). I disagree with him on two points though,
which in no way detract from his opinion of Windoze 8, firstly I believe that
this trash is the culmination of a progressive dumbing-down which did actually
begin with Gates, and secondly, I find the Ribbon interface absolutely dreadful
(but obviously still much better than Metro). [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
