As We May Think, Kickable Robots, Google’s HCI, Future Thinking, Affordances & Blog Update
May 2nd, 2008 by Mike Bennett
A true HCI classic from 1945 (pre-pre-HCI). Vannevar Bush’s reflections on how technology can augment the human intellect: As We May Think
Neat - Kickable self-reassembling robots. (thanks Graham)
Get some insight into how Google approaches usability and HCI in the talk The Art and Science of User Experience at Google.
An amusing ad. Have you ever felt like that forward thinking little girl when explaining some far out research and design concepts?
Affordances - a common usability term. Do you mean Gibson’s or Norman’s sense of affordances?
Just a quick blog note: For the last few weeks I’ve only posted a weekly Link Bucket. A lot of my time and energy is going into writing up my HCI PhD (woohoo!). Every week I’ll continue sending interesting links your way BUT for the next while I won’t be writing longer speculative and reflective pieces. Got to keep focused.
