Besides optimizations for small screens I also improved design elements like search suggests, the breadcrumb trail or the table of contents. I opted for even bigger design elements and font sizes. Big is beautiful! Every clickable element should be fingertip-sized and fonts should still be readable at 66.7% scale. text/html 2010-01-17T12:15:20+02:00 http://wikidesign.ch/en/blog/dokutouch-released?rev=1263726920&do=diff Today, I released the first version of the new DokuTouch template -- the same as we use for the Wikidesign website here.

But it's not central for this device. Apple feels strong enough to leave these features aside. And they are right: The iPad will be a huge success even without them. Remember the complaints when the first iMac was introduced without a floppy drive or when became clear that the iPhone would hav… text/html 2010-05-30T05:55:20+02:00 http://wikidesign.ch/en/blog/what-works-on-the-ipad-and-what-does-not?rev=1275191720&do=diff I got my iPad about a month ago. Since then I'm using it heavily in order to find out for myself for which tasks it is usable and for which it is not yet or not at all. Limitations of the Device The iPad is clearly an indoor device. Due to its backlit screen the contrast is way to poor on a sunny day outdoor. But indoor, it can be nearly everywhere: as a reference next to the computer in the office, as toilet literature in the bathroom, as an audio/video-player in the kitchen, as an e-mail re…
