In addition to design, it'll be interesting to see if Apple catches up (widgets, etc) and finally breaks out of the grid of icons we've all been rocking since the original Palm Pilot and Windows 3.0.
- bluthru 13y agoComplexity isn't better design. Apple had widgets back in OS X 10.4. Not having widgets is a design decision, not being "behind".
- nevir 13y agoTrue, but iOS doesn't address the core reason behind widgets very well: users want a more relevant at-a-glance view of things. Notification center doesn't cut it.
- MatthewPhillips 13y ago> Complexity isn't better design. Neither is simplicity. Balance is important. Taking away features makes something more simple, but not necessarily better. If it did we'd all be using Jitterbugs.
