Book description
The trick to great design is knowing how to think through each
decision so that users don't have to. In Designing the Moment:
Web Interface Design Concepts in Action, Robert Hoekman, Jr.,
author of Designing the Obvious, presents over 30 stories
that illustrate how to put good design principles to work on
real-world web application interfaces to make them obvious and
compelling. From the first impression to the last, Hoekman takes a
think out loud approach to interface design to show us how to look
critically at design decisions to ensure that human beings, the
kind that make mistakes and do things we don't expect, can walk
away from our software feeling productive, respected, and
smart.
