Crash Course: Design for Startups
I recently stumbled across screenshots of old websites of mine and was hurled into a state of reminiscent shock. I knew they were bad, but wow they were outstandingly horrible (redeemed only by their microformats support! I kid, I kid). Several years and a few Georgia Tech design and HCI courses have passed since those atrocities graced the web but I archived them in a sort of reverse portfolio as a personal reminder of how much my design sensibilities have matured.1. Minimal Viable Product thinking can be a trap – there has recently been a huge movement toward creating a “minimum viable product” and then going out to market as quickly as possible. I would argue it is important to temper this trend. This has turned into a tendency to quickly roll out half-baked functionality because developers believe they are following the MVP mantra.

Le Responsive Web design (conception adaptative ou réactive en français) représente un ensemble de méthodes et techniques permettant d’universaliser un site Web. Qu’il soit consulté sur ordinateur, tablette, e-reader ou mobile, le site ainsi conçu s’adapte automatiquement à la taille de l’écran. Cette évolution très séduisante du Web pose néanmoins certaines questions d’ergonomie et oblige à repenser la conception des sites. Nous abordons dans cet article les objectifs du responsive design, les critères qui doivent décider à le mettre en œuvre, les recommandations de conception et les considérations techniques.
Responsive webdesign : adapter un site à toutes les résolutions
by anthony on 06/20/12 at 10:39 pm Have you ever wanted your users to click your links, but didn’t know how to get them to act? When some designers run into this problem they’re tempted to use the words “click here” on their links. Before you give in to the temptation, you should know that using these words on a link can affect how users experience your interface. “Click” Puts Too Much Focus on Mouse Mechanics Using the word “click” on your links takes the user’s attention away from your interface and on to their mouse.
Why Your Links Should Never Say “Click Here”

Le call to action est un des éléments clés de la transformation . Cela ne se limite pas à l’e-commerce mais à toutes les situations dans lesquelles vous souhaitez voir vos visiteurs ou vos utilisateurs cliquer. Sans entrer dans les détails, un bon call to action doit être visible, se détacher du reste de la page, et donner envie d’aller voir ce qu’il y a derrière. Je suis tombé hier soir sur le site de la banque en ligne ING Direct. L’objectif de ce site est de faire ouvrir un compte bancaire en ligne à ses visiteurs.

Quand le haut et le pied de page vous suivent
Avec la généralisation des écrans plats, la résolution moyenne des moniteurs qui équipent les internautes est en constante hausse (cf. StatCounter Global Stats ). En conséquence de quoi, les pages des sites web s’allongent de plus en plus. Mais qui dit “ pages qui s’allongent ” dit “ menus de navigation qui s’éloignent “.
