The touch-and-drag interaction for touch screens sees potential for new improvement. Watch this video and chime in here: do you think this aids in the user experience?
The User Experience And Psychology Of Colour (via @SpyreStudios @infojuicer)
Why Colours?
I have to say I’d never thought about this until I came across a success message on GetClicky.com (a service I love) that told me I’d successfully completed adding my Feedburner URL to my account in a colour I affectionately refer to as ‘warning red‘:
I actually thought I made an error somehow (without reading the message – my bad) then went back and repeated the task before I realized I was being told I had successfully completed the task. In ‘warning red‘.
I had to think about this for a moment; why would I associate red with failure? Was this just the strange way my brain was wired, or is there a convention here that we’ve all learned to follow?
I decided to look at forms on several popular sites and see what conventions (if any) they followed. The sites I chose to take a look at were Gmail, Twitter and Facebook – all very popular sites that (should) have put some serious thoughts into their designs and usability.

Screenshot on the left is Google’s latest Google TV Remote app for iOS, and the other is Apple’s Remote app. You can easily tell the difference between Google and Apple from their user interface design. One word, simplicity.
The Difference between Google and Apple
This is one of the best commercial I have ever seen so far. Not just it’s extremely complex methods that used but also the experience design that have been done by the designers is incredible. This experience goes like between 25 February till to the end of Geneva Motor Show, when you go to Hyundai i40’s website you end up to a session where you suppose to record some mouse movements over the car and afterwards you are able to watch this installation recorded live from the warehouse, with different cameras. Such a cleaver way to make see people your product with all their attention for as much as time you can.
