Best Practices of Good Touch Screen Interface Design [Digg]
2008-05-16 16:06:00 Touch screen interface design is a tricky thing for some people who’ve been designing for a mouse-bound audience. But with the coming of the iPhone and a host of other touch-screen equipped smart phones at attractive price points (Like the Palm Centro and HTC Touch) I’m thinking about touch screen interfaces more and more. Maybe you should be, too.

Interface design and the iPhone
2008-01-25 13:31:00 The iPhone platform elegantly solves the design problem of small screens by greatly intensifying the information resolution of each displayed page.

The book was originally printed in 1932, and is a must read for anyone who follows veterans issues: written by one of the key organizers of the 1932 bonus march, it chronicles the story of the bonus marchers as they crossed the country on their way to Washington, the summer spent lobbying Congress, and their final expulsion from DC at the hands of the U.S. Army.What does this have to do with interface design? Well, the authoritative place to go when you are registering new titles in print is Bowkerlink.com, because Bowker is the authorized manager of the US ISBN agency.
