Of course design elements (color, typeface, white space, etc) are important...but visitors of your site are interested in consuming content NOW (not a few seconds form now). People are lazy.
- aasarava 13y agoActually, I'm inclined to bet this was one designer's concept and not the work of many people reviewing prototypes and giving feedback. Design-by-group tends to produce boring, cluttered, seen-it-before layouts with little innovation. This seems to be on the completely opposite end of the spectrum -- with no one saying, "Uh, wait -- I think you need to make it clear that you can scroll for more info." (And also: "Uh, I'm not sure developers are going to take kindly to Google requesting access to their microphones so soon after the NSA revelations.")
- judk 13y agoThat's not actually what "groupthink" means, so you aren't really disagreeing.
