Reminder: DL week events
Email comments on design
General comments: designs beyond search to info services
(GOOD!)
Next phase was to be results designs, since already
included in most designs, let’s do a second round on your drafts
Progress on projects!??
1. One-minute paper debriefing (none last week)
Big Points:
Questions:
2. Readings catch up
Winograd: toward interaction design. Hardware-->Software-->Netware-->Infoware
Communication rather than computing (ubiquitous)
People INTERACT with “pages” rather than VIEW them
Designing for interaction (people, lives, contexts, activities)
Need to consider affective elements
Weiser & Seely-Brown: Calm technology ManyP:OneC-->OneP:OneC-->ManyP:ManyC
Beyond ubiquitous to transparent (people shared by many computers must
stay out of the way—keep the people “calm and in control”
Thin servers (new info businesses?)
3 signs: a) easy transition from center to periphery
b) increase periphery reach (without overloading)
c) locatedness (at home in cyberspace????)
Marchionini & Komlodi ARIST chapter
Consider the organization of literature—we used chronology by
research area (technology, Information seeking, interface design) by characteristics.
Toward higher levels of interactivity (does not mean MORE action
on user part!!)
3. Hearst paper: Tilebars
Close coupling of query and results
Dependent on underlying document partitioning
Limitations? Enhancements?
4. Move to lab to continue white board session on query design; also extend to results
5. One-minute paper
What was the big point you learned in class today?
What is the main, unanswered question you leave class with today?
