They were so proud of it they wrote a <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2011/08/26/improvements-in-windows-explorer.aspx">blog post</a> about it.</p> <p>The post is a sort of masterpiece of crazy rationalization, but I think my favourite part may be <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-43-metablogapi/8816.Figure-10-_2D00_-Home-tab-usage-heatmap_5F00_2.png">this screenshot</a>:</p> <p><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-43-metablogapi/8816.Figure-10-_2D00_-Home-tab-usage-heatmap_5F00_2.png"/></p> <p>Here, they proudly overlay the UI with data from their research into how often various commands are used. They use this to show that “the commands that make up 84% of what users do in Explorer are now in one tab”. But the more important thing is that the remaining 50% of the bar is taken up by <strong>buttons that </strong><strong>nobody will ever use, ever, even according to Microsoft’s own research</strong>. And yet somehow they remain smack bang in the middle of the interface. The insanity is further enriched by this graph:</p> <p><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/communityserver-blogs-components-weblogfiles/00-00-01-29-43-metablogapi/3125.Figure-6-_2D00_-Command-entrypoint_5F00_2.png" height="397" width="578"/></p> <p>Again, this is Microsoft’s own research, cited in the same post: nobody — almost literally 0% of users — uses the menu bar, and only 10% of users use the command bar. Nearly everybody is using the context menu or hotkeys. So the solution, obviously, is to make both the menu bar and the command bar bigger and more prominent. Right?</p> <p>Microsoft UI has officially entered the realm of self-parody.</p> </blockquote>http://blog.shahor.fr/post/9584439853http://blog.shahor.fr/post/9584439853Tue, 30 Aug 2011 14:05:30 +0200<a href="http://github.com/erkie/erkie.github.com">Add Asteroids to any page with JavaScript bookmarklet and blow stuff up</a>: <p><a href="http://thechangelog.com/post/1206144430/erkie-github-com-mah-pages">thechangelog</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>OK, this is just too cool. <a href="http://github.com/erkie">Erik Rothoff</a> has created a bookmarklet that lets you add <a href="http://lg.gd/2a">Asteroids</a> to any web page and blow stuff up!</p> <p> <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,115,0" height="345" width="560"> <param name="movie" value="http://screenr.com/Content/assets/screenr_1116090935.swf"><param name="flashvars" value="i=111881"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><embed src="http://screenr.com/Content/assets/screenr_1116090935.swf" flashvars="i=111881" allowfullscreen="true" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" height="345" width="560"></embed></object> </p> <p>The game uses JavaScript and the HTML5 <a href="http://thechangelog.com/tagged/canvas"><code><canvas></code></a> element to render game elements.</p> <p>To install just drag the bookmarklet to your bookmarks, navigate to the page you would like to destroy, and launch the bookmark.
