This document discusses various topics related to interface design including color, typography, iconography, microformats, and flexibility. It provides tips for choosing color palettes, using CSS for typography, designing favicons, and using microformats to embed semantic information in HTML. It emphasizes designing with flexibility in mind by making sure interfaces are usable even when images or CSS is disabled, text is enlarged, or markup and stylesheets are validated.
Although responsive web design has only been around for a few years, it's grown up a lot since first we started talking about fluid grids and media queries. Now, we look to responsive design with the goal of providing a good experience for every user on every device. From the DC Web Women Code(Her) Conference, 9/13/14.

Copy & Pest - A case-study on the clipboard, blind trust and invisible cross-...Mario Heiderich
The clipboard is one of the most commonly used tools across operating systems, window managers and devices. Pressing Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V has become so fundamentally important to productivity and usability that we cannot get rid of it anymore. We happily and often thoughtlessly copy things from one source and paste them into another. URLs into address-bars, lengthy commands into console windows, text segments into web editors and mail interfaces. And we never worry about security when doing so. Because what could possibly go wrong, right?
But have we ever asked ourselves what the clipboard content actually consists of? Do we really know what it contains? And are we aware of the consequences a thoughtless copy&paste interaction can have? Who else can control the contents of the clipboard? Is it really just us doing Ctrl-C or is there other forces in the realm who are able to infect what we believe to be clean, who can desecrate what we trust so blindly that we never question or observe it?
This talk is about the clipboard and the technical details behind it. How it works, what it really contains – and who can influence its complex range of contents. We will learn about a new breed of targeted attacks, including cross-application XSS from PDF, ODT, DOC and XPS that allow to steal website accounts faster than you can click, turn your excel sheet into a monster and learn about ways to smuggle creepy payload that is hidden from sight until it executes. Oh, and we’ll also see what can be done about that and what defensive measures we achieved to create so far.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
35. Too few fonts?
“During the Italian renaissance the
typographer had one font to work with,
and yet this period produced some of the
most beautiful typographical work.”
—Oliver Reichenstein
36. “Information design is not about the use of
good typefaces, it is about the use of good
typography ... Anyone can use typefaces,
some can choose good typefaces, but only
few master typography.”
—Oliver Reichenstein
75. microformats are ...
- Confusing
- A waste of time
- Something geeks do with a lot of time on
their hands
76. “Designed for humans first and
machines second, microformats are a
set of simple, open data formats built
upon existing and widely adopted
standards. Instead of throwing away
what works today, microformats intend
to solve simpler problems first by
adapting to current behaviors and
usage patterns (e.g. XHTML, blogging).”

77. “Cool. I’ll do it that
way too” “Cool. I’ll do it that
“I'm going to mark way too”
up a contact like
this...” “Cool. I’ll do it that
way too”

PEOPLE APPLICATION CSS
108. “Bulletproof”
- Embracing flexibility
- Preparing for worst-case scenarios
- Protecting your designs from “breaking”
- Catch-phrase to sell books and secure
speaking engagements
118. Turn CSS off.
Give your design an x-ray. A quot;10-
second usability testquot; isn't scientific—
but it can help illustrate separation of
structure and presentation.
119.
120.
121.
122. Bump up text size.
Increase text size to see how the design
reacts. Can it adapt to varying
amounts of content?
