Boxes And Arrows Website
I tried to go to Boxes and Arrows the other day. Boxes and Arrows is a venerable (that means it’s been around a long time) information architecture website/journal. I had noticed that I wasn’t getting any articles from it in my news reader and wondered why.
Warcraftpets.com Chart: Usability Workshop
A Bit of Background
I play a little game called World of Warcraft (WoW). I’ve played this game since it came out and it’s one of my main hobbies. In the game, I collect battle pets, level them up and try to defeat pet battle masters (sound a bit like Pokemon, well, yes it’s very much like that).
Pet battle teams consist of three pets that you choose. They then face off against the three pets of the battle master. Each pet comes from one of ten families and those families have strengths and weaknesses against the other families.
Getting lost yet? I promise this will get back to usability in a moment, but it is kind of proving the point that to create a usable interface, you have to understand what is being used.
