are becoming far more common

we go about creating the next generation of content-rich, meaningful, usable, and interesting web sites, that are designed to operate in a generally smaller, more varied and far less predictable environment? http://www.flickr.com/photos/chelsea_nj/4223680604

Part 2: Beyond the mobile
web http://www.flickr.com/photos/adactio/932798536

...a few ideas from the
yiibus

Idea 1: Loosen up
http://www.flickr.com/photos/seo2/94216483

control is now an illusion...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/dominicspics/3385403397

there is too much diversity...

data wants to move around...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/anniemole/5354202837

we’ve already set much of
our content free... http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/3044172251/

...we never really know where
it will end up

d spot the bran brand
presence (as we once knew it) is disappearing http://www.flickr.com/photos/alreadytaken/4944698902/

the conversation isn’t even on
our site any more... ...companies are increasingly questioning the need to have separate corporate sites when the bulk of interest and traffic from customers goes directly to their Facebook pages. - Thomas Crampton “

...so why are we still
obsessed with controlling each pixel on our web site? PS - the Ubuntu style guidelines are actually quite lovely! Take a look...

“I can’t see it on
my BlackBerry...“ often at the - user comment regarding the new Threadless mobile site expense of access... http://www.flickr.com/photos/zoetnet/4669800101/

“If I can’t see your
awesome web site...it’s not really that awesome is it?” and therefore, of user experience... http://www.flickr.com/photos/zoetnet/4669800101/

you can’t plan for every
contingency... http://www.flickr.com/photos/mackarus/4289960218

and will never know how
your site looks on every device... http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/3009516045

create nimble experiences – not
perfect ones... http://www.flickr.com/photos/92523880@N00/5047216186

Idea 2: Let them tweak
http://www.flickr.com/photos/jaybergesen/198091718

progressive enhancement is increasingly important
http://www.flickr.com/photos/clagnut/315554083

why not let users participate?
http://www.flickr.com/photos/nasa_goddard/4733847144

choose the enhancements that are
most meaningful to them... http://www.flickr.com/photos/29301264@N06/3844309716

set a user experience baseline
for *all* web experiences... thematically semantic markup consistent (view source) optimised images minimal responsive layout cluer (almost.. :-) one web pragmatic scripting http://www.alistapart.com/articles/responsive-web-design http://m.alistapart.com/articles/responsive-web-design lightweight!

...then provide
meaningful choices
http://www.flickr.com/photos/lamantin/5143354304

...in data consumption user agent
says it’s a PC (plus it has a big screen) she obviously has hmm...I wonder lots of bandwidth! how much data she’s used so far this month? oh...hold on, she’s on a dongle http://www.flickr.com/photos/mujitra/4571580931

provide a choice of size/
quality for key content

and media... option to choose
high or low quality (with default based on device you’re using)

Look, it’s a Galaxy Tab...she
must be in a ‘contemplative reading mode’... tweaking the reading experience

pinching or double-tapping to zoom
is good fun but has zero continuity...

let users set persistent reading
preferences...

or even tweak the whole
experience...

...if you don’t ...they’ll probably
do it themselves

Idea 3: Content first ingredients
make all the difference http://www.flickr.com/photos/wwworks/822821227

designing mobile first can help
us to focus... http://www.flickr.com/photos/hussain_quantum/2087578696

portable desktop web http://www.flickr.com/photos/29301264@N06/3844309716 http://www.flickr.com/photos/29301264@N06/3844309716

but I think we need
to go further... http://www.flickr.com/photos/basheertome/5557362895

“ No matter how cool
your interface is, it would be nice if there were less of it. - Alan Cooper http://jonbox.wordpress.com/2010/05/27/what-is-au2h-and-why-i-cared/

...on smaller screens, content naturally
ends up front and centre

include definition(s) so we need
to actually design the content first... a book turtle illustration(s) required define variations(s) contextually relevant http://www.flickr.com/photos/lindaaslund/3296943915

semantic structures can be include
definition(s) used to create incredibly rich and responsive content... a book turtle illustration(s) required contextually relevant define variations(s) http://www.flickr.com/photos/lindaaslund/3296943915

yet we mostly apply this
richness to the interface...

this is due in part
to the way we currently build web sites... essentially Word in a browser...? put your content here...

most sites are built as
giant (often all-purpose) data containers... http://www.flickr.com/photos/lisasanderson/3414118999/

...with different areas to accommodate
different data structures services utilities knowledge base products news location finder corporate info http://www.flickr.com/photos/lisasanderson/3414118999/

this makes sense if you
have big data... http://www.flickr.com/photos/dalbera/3151369718

...or primarily user
generated data

name cover cost rating ...or
inherently stock structured data publisher, ISBN, # pages

but can be pretty painful
if you need to produce content like this...

or this...

...and especially this!

The rabbit-hole went straight on
like a tunnel for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well. Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to wonder what was going to happen next. First, she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to, but it was too dark to see anything; then she looked at the sides of the well, and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs. She took down a jar from one of the shelves as she passed; it was labelled 'ORANGE MARMALADE', but to her great disappointment it was empty: she did not like to drop the jar for fear of killing somebody, so most sites (and the CMS’s that managed to put it into one of the cupboards as she fell past it. 'Well!' thought Alice to herself, 'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say manage them) accommodate only anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!' (Which was very likely true.) Down, down, down. Would the fall NEVER come to an end! 'I wonder how many miles I've fallen by this time?' she said aloud. 'I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth. Let me see: that would be four thousand miles down, I think--' (for, you see, Alice had learnt several things of this sort in her lessons in the unstructured or ‘formless’ content... schoolroom, and though this was not a VERY good opportunity for showing off her knowledge, as there was no one to listen to her, still it was good practice to say it over) '--yes, that's about the right distance--but then I wonder what Latitude or Longitude I've got to?' (Alice had no idea what Latitude was, or Longitude either, but thought they were nice grand words to say.) Presently she began again. 'I wonder if I shall fall right THROUGH the earth! How funny it'll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downward! The Antipathies, I think--' (she was rather glad there WAS no one listening, this time, as it didn't sound at all the right word) '--but I shall have to ask them what the name of the country is, you know. Please, Ma'am, is this New Zealand or Australia?' (and she tried to curtsey as she spoke--fancy CURTSEYING as you're falling through the air! Do you think you could manage it?) 'And what an ignorant little girl she'll think me for asking! No, it'll never do to ask: perhaps I shall see it written up somewhere.' Down, down, down. There was nothing else to do, so Alice soon began talking again. 'Dinah'll miss me very much to-night, I should think!' (Dinah was the cat.) 'I hope they'll remember her saucer of milk at tea-time. Dinah my dear! I wish you were down here with me! There are no mice in the air, I'm afraid, but you might catch a bat, and that's very like a mouse, you know. But do cats eat bats, I wonder?' And here Alice began to get rather sleepy, and went on saying to herself, in a dreamy sort of way, 'Do cats eat bats? Do cats eat bats?' and sometimes, 'Do bats eat cats?' for, you see, as she couldn't answer either question, it didn't much matter which way she put it. She felt that she was dozing off, and had just begun to dream that she was walking hand in hand with Dinah, and saying to her very earnestly, 'Now, Dinah, tell me the truth: did you ever eat a bat?' when suddenly, thump! thump! down she came upon a heap of sticks and dry leaves, and the fall was over. Alice was not a bit hurt, and she jumped up on to her feet in a moment: she looked up, but it was all dark overhead; before her was another long passage, and the White Rabbit was still in sight, hurrying down it. There was not a moment to be lost: away went Alice like the wind, and was just in time to hear it say, as it turned a corner, 'Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it's getting!' She was close behind it when she turned the corner, but the Rabbit was no longer to be seen: she found herself in a long, low hall, which was lit up by a row of lamps hanging from the roof. There were doors all round the hall, but they were all locked; and when Alice had been all the way down one side and up the other, trying every door, she walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she was ever to get out again. Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass; there was nothing on it except a tiny golden key, and Alice's first thought was that it might belong to one of the doors of the hall; but, alas! either the locks were too large, or the key was too small, but at any rate it would not open any of them. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before, and behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high: she tried the little golden key in the lock, and to her great delight it fitted! Alice opened the door and found that it led into a small passage, not much larger than a rat-hole: she knelt down and looked along the passage into the loveliest garden you ever saw. How she longed to get out of that dark hall, and wander about among those beds of bright flowers and those cool fountains, but she could not even get her head through the doorway; 'and even if my head would go through,' thought poor Alice, 'it would be of http://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/11/pg11.txt very little use without my shoulders. Oh,
