I believe the future user interfaces are going to be minimalistic and non-patronizing (like Hacker News).
The interface shown in this article (and similar) have a very high learning curve and are counter productive (generally).
- ThomPete 15y agoThat really depend on what the goal of the interface is. For quickly finding the song/album you want yes, for exploration not necessarily. It would be a stretch to call HN the future of interfaces unless you refer to the underlying algorithms.
- rushabh 15y agoWhat I meant was that the trend would be more towards minimalism and simple metaphors rather than 3D realism. I don't say that highly visual interfaces don't have their place. I would say the difference is like the difference between a the UI of a book (minimum visual representation) v/s a movie (highest visual representation). If I have to take an honest pick, and I believe I can be wrong, is that most user interfaces will have more abstraction than specific representation.
