The
Beginning of Web Design...
Stating
the Obvious
by

Jakob Nielsen argues that "websites
must tone down their individual appearance and distinct design in all
ways." Nielsen argues that because the user's web experience is
becoming more interconnected -- with syndicated content and services, and
the growth of network-based computing -- sites need to become more generic
in "visual design, terminology and labeling, interaction design and
workflow, [and] information architecture."
This piece is the promised follow-up to
Nielsen's
June 25th
piece, which dissected
Microsoft's
.NET announcement. In that piece, Nielsen argued that since the
network is the new user experience, individual sites will no longer
"supply a complete user experience, [instead] each site will supply a
component of the overall user experience that is coordinated by the new
nexus."
