Blog Esprit-Design : Tendance Design / Deco Visual.ly:自动制作信息图 Visual.ly 这家网站以丰富的信息图资源而著称,很多用户乐意把自己制作的信息图上传到网站中与他人分享。最近网站不再局限于一个信息图分享平台的角色,它还将帮助人们制作信息图,在美国 SXSW 音乐节上 Visual.ly 公布了这则消息。 用 Visual.ly 制作信息图并不复杂,它是一个自动化工具。网站的联合创始人兼 CEO Stew Langille 称,他们打造了一个平台,让人快速而简易插入不同种类的数据,并通过图形把数据表达出来。 用户只要注册 Visual.ly,并登陆 便可以尝试制作自己的信息图。 从上图中我们可以看到,Visual.ly 目前只能导入来自 Twitter、Facebook 的数据,而且需要和用户的账号相连。 Visual.ly 把其中一个利用 Twitter 数据,制作信息图的一个功能称之为 Twitter Showdown。 另外一个利用 Twitter 制作信息图的功能叫 Twitterize Yourself,能够根据 Twitter 账号生成一个人偶图片,并在下方标注和账号有关的 Twitter 状态,大家可以在这里查看 ifanr 的 Twitter 人偶。 Facebook Insider 是 Visual.ly 利用 Facebook 制作信息图的功能。 Visual.ly 还能够根据用户个人的 Facebook 账号生成一个 Facebook Monster,是一个类似 Twitterize Yourself 的功能,除了能生成一个怪物玩偶以外,也能够展现 Facebook 账号的数据。 由于 Hashtag 已经成为社交网络中常见的一种聚合话题的形式,因此 Visual.ly 也提供了利用 Hashtag 进行数据挖掘的功能:Life of a Hashtag。

6 Interface Design Principles and Tips Every Web Designer Should Know Good interface design is like the air we breathe - it's there when you need it and you use it without thinking. If you've ever used a bad interface design, struggled to get around a site, clicked away because you couldn't figure out what was going on, not been able to complete a task you had in mind, or just been plain confused, you'll know the perils of going wrong in this area. Websites are not pretty pictures, they are there to be used and consumed, so it's pretty important that as web designers we spend a good portion of time thinking about usability. 1 - Analysing Audiences When laying out Psdtuts+ we take into consideration the different ways people will be using the site In any website there are at least three distinct parties involved - the client or owner of the site, the users of the site and the designer or builder of the site.
