Picture of the Week: Mobile Interface Design

This picture is pretty self-explanatory.  Web design in general is more about marketing now days.  When the Internet was born, all webmasters needed to do was display information.  Later, web designers wanted to see how far they could go with the designs and the Internet became more like an abstract canvas for artists.

Today the most important element is the user experience.  If you cannot get your viewer hooked, then you are just wasting money and your time designing it.

There are certain 'standards' that users have come to expect when they visit a website.  It is the job of the designer to meet those needs and then go beyond.  Number eight in the image above, in my opinion, is the most important.

This week check out Mobile Web Mastery: 25 Tips on Designing for Mobile Devices and 5 Pillars of Successful Mobile Design.
