The success of web applications and websites depends in how well designed the User Interface is. Designing a good user interface however is a very challenging process. A designer’s concepts and design decisions always affect the end users of the web site, application or generally any user interface or service he has designed. That is why, the dream of every designer is to deliver high quality, enjoyable and valuable experiences for the users.

When I got into the industry way back in the 1980s, there was one type of game designer in our industry. We called him "programmer." He (or she in the case of the rare few like Dona Bailey ) was often a one-man show responsible for design, programming, sound, and art all in one.

Takeaway: An interface that fails to consider the user perspective isn’t likely to win acceptance. Jack Wallen looks at user habits and attitudes that UI designers should keep in mind. With Ubuntu Unity having its first anniversary recently and Windows 8 on the brink of release, it’s becoming quite clear that not all user interfaces are created equal.
