There is a lot more to "design" in web than some stupid visual trendiness ; its the entire reason we have two different phrases: UI & UX...
UX is how we experience the content, UI being how content is presented to us.
Good UI builds a good UX. Good UX builds understanding and relationship to the user's mind to the content.
- ghaff 4y agoOne of the things you're fighting against is that a lot of people just don't engage if there's a lot of text. I write a fair bit for our marketing department and we basically never publish the 3000-4000 word whitepapers that were routine when I joined the company any longer. Even reports I write based on survey data are fairly light on the word count because people just don't read the longer pieces.
- jasonhansel 4y agoThe problem isn't that websites should have more text; it's that they should have more content, using things other than whitespace to establish a visual hierarchy.
- samstave 4y agoExactly ; the real sublime is that the human mind, in its current iteration is a Pattern Recognignation Engine With Amnesia but the key skill that the Human has is the speed between visual correlation to cognition of the library of thoughts available. So obviously a person who does not have that connect, will fail to real-ize the scenario visualized.
