With such strong competition from Mozilla and Microsoft, the only thing Opera can do to stay competitive is to innovate. And one has to hand it to them: although it doesn’t have a huge user base in the desktop web browser space, Opera is always one step ahead of the rest, for better or for worse.
With version 10.10, Opera (
) has taken its biggest step into the unknown so far, marrying the web browser with the web server. It definitely makes it unique in the world of web browsers, but there’s always the lingering question whether all these new features are really something we need, or is it just confusing the users?
“Our devices will evolve. From in-dash computers in trucks to entertainment systems in airplanes, and from a netbook in North Dakota to a phone in North Africa, every device is both a consumer and a provider of content.”
The idea is certainly interesting, but the web has been moving in another direction in the past couple of years: the cloud. Instead of having stuff run on your computer, your applications and your data reside in the cloud, with all the resources and the know-how provided by a company like Google (
). So yes, with Opera Unite, you can host a web site on your own home computer, but you might run into bandwidth issues; with Google Sites, you can easily create a web site without worrying about bandwidth, but you’re at Google’s mercy, so to say. So far, despite possible privacy and security issues, cloud computing has been taking over, and it’s hard to imagine Opera turning the tide in the other direction. Some Unite applications, however, like the media server or the chat, are quite useful and might win over some converts for the Norwegian browser.
Other interesting features in the new Opera 10.10 include Opera’s Turbo technology, which speeds up browsing by compressing web pages on Opera’s servers and delivering you the “lite” version, Opera Link, which lets you synchronize data across several computers, a slick new look with a resizable tab bar, and a BitTorrent-enabled download manager. See the full list of features here.
The most compelling feature about ShopSavvy is NOT the ability to scan a barcode, instead it is the ability to expose inventory and pricing information from local retailers. In the Android version of ShopSavvy our standard screen had a Web tab and a Local tab that exposed the number of results for each. If the user scans an item that we don’t have a local result for we show “0″ as the number of results. Over the past year we have regretted this decision as users will email us letting us know they aren’t pleased we don’t have local results. In our iPhone version we fixed this issue.
In the iPhone version of ShopSavvy if you scan an item WITHOUT local prices we simply show a tab that says “Prices”. If we have local prices we show the two tabs, i.e. Web and Local price. By not calling attention to the fact that we don’t have a local price for an item we don’t get many emails from annoyed users relative to local results. Of course, in our world, not many is hundreds so I thought I would explain how to get local results on ShopSavvy.
Most new users (i.e. the vast majority of support emails) download ShopSavvy at their house and begin scanning items they already to own. Many of these items are grocery related and we don’t cover groceries very well (read more here). The rest are old books and DVDs – many of these are still available online, but they are no longer in local stores. These ‘DEMO’ scans often yield poor results, a) the items are no longer sold in local stores, b) they are of groceries and c) the barcodes are hard to read. We have received hundreds of negative ratings from these users even though they have never actually tried to use ShopSavvy to shop. My advice? Use ShopSavvy when you shop – you will be surprised how helpful ShopSavvy can be.
The reason ShopSavvy performs well in retail stores is fairly obvious. First, the items sold in one retail store are likely sold in other retail stores – meaning we will have local inventory and price. Major local retailers carry between 10,000 and 100,000 items – this is out of millions of items. Second, the lighting in retail stores is often far better than the lighting in your house – this means scanning will be faster. Third, the barcodes are almost always printed on flat surfaces – this means scanning will be faster. Trying to scan items in your house means you are scanning items that might not be currently sold, might have hard to read barcodes and scanning in low light. Before you give us a poor review or rating, please actually use ShopSavvy when you are shopping for Christmas.

In this article, we’ll be focusing on web usability and more specifically, on the views of world renowned usability expert, Jakob Nielsen.
He’s been called “the guru of Web page usability” by the New York Times and “the king of usability” by Internet Magazine.
Through his Alertbox newsletter and useit.com website, he has been educating hundreds of thousands of web designers around the world since 1995.
While his views can be controversial, especially for web designers, he remains the top leader in the usability field.
I recently interviewed Jakob Nielsen exclusively for WDD and asked him a few questions that should be relevant to all web designers interested in creating user friendly websites.
I have worked in the usability field since 1983: my first projects were with text-only UIs on mainframe computers.
I then proceeded to mainly work on graphical user interfaces. For example my students and I did a lot of studies of early Macintosh software which was not always as great as people have idolized it to be.
This early experience came in handy later, because the first ten years of Web applications were remarkably similar to the old IBM 3270 mainframe applications in their interaction style.
In general, it’s very useful for a usability specialist to have experience with multiple generations of computers, because that allows you to identify bigger trends in human behavior and not be seduced by the latest fads.
The first decade of my career was focused on two problems: how to get usability methods more widely used, using “discount usability”, and how to improve the usability of online information.
As a result, I wrote one of the first books on hypertext in 1989 (published 1990), and a widely adopted textbook on usability engineering in software projects.
In 1994 I started doing Web usability projects which happily fused these two interests into one topic. I find it quite amusing that in the early days of Web usability, critics complained that you couldn’t apply usability methods to websites because they only work for software applications.
In contrast, in recent years, the enemies of usability have started to claim that usability is so focused on websites that the findings don’t transfer to applications, AJAX, and such. Some people will take any excuse to ignore their customers.
Of course, the reality is that usability applies to anything that has a user interface, whether website, application, mobile phone, camcorder, or anything else. The specific guidelines will differ, but the broad principles are all dictated by the psychology of the human mind, which has been steady for 10,000 years.
Yes, but the restrictions are certainly not as tight as they were in the days of 28.8 kbps dial-up.
The response time guidelines remain the same as always, because they are set by the way people are wired, not the way the Internet is wired. So the findings from, say, testing pilots in World War II are still valid.
One of the main guidelines is to show the next state (e.g., the next page) with one second of the user’s action (e.g., click) in order for users to experience the feeling of a freely-flowing interaction, as opposed to a sensation of delays. In one second, you can download about a megabyte over a typical American broadband connection (and much more in Asia) if you have full throughput.
The main problem for response times today is not download delays, but rather server delays, as people stick too many widgets and dynamic objects on their pages.
Remember: 1.0 sec. response time, or users won’t feel that they’re navigating freely. Also remember that direct-manipulation options, such as within-page AJAX controls require 0.1 sec. response times to avoid feeling sluggish.
Follow the 3 basic rules: get representative customers, ask them to perform realistic tasks, and shut up and let them do the talking.
You only need 5 users to uncover enough usability insights to keep you busy for months. Even though there are only 3 rules, they are routinely violated in many studies.
For example, it’s wrong to test with your friends or colleagues. You need to bring in external users who are representative of the target audience and who don’t know anything about your project. And you can’t just let them fool around: they have to do real tasks. And, of course, you have to keep from biasing their behavior and giving them hints about how to use the site.
That’s why the “shut up” rule is so important. Of course, it’s best to have a big multidisciplinary team with dedicated usability specialists for running the studies, but small teams should still do testing.
It’s cheap, and as long as they stick to the basic methodology, designers can definitely run their own usability studies.
The basic rules are the same as for any studies. There’s a 4th rule, which is to run the test on representative equipment.
For a desktop study, this means using a Mac or PC, and it doesn’t matter much which one you pick. Our biggest decision is which screen resolution to use. For the last several years, we main tested at 1024×768, but we’ve now moved up one screen size for most studies.
For mobile, it’s harder to use “representative” equipment, because phones differ so much more than computers do. In our mobile studies, we test sites on all 3 main classes of mobile devices: “feature phones” (the telecoms industry’s paradoxical name for low-end phones with few features), smartphones (e.g., Blackberry), and touch-screen phones (e.g., iPhone).
We recruit a range of users and then test each user with his or her own phone, which they bring to the study. Sadly, this means that we need to test more users in a mobile study than in a desktop study, because the usability issues are very different for each class of phone.
Ideally, I recommend that sites design 3 different mobile versions, because of these differences. I realize that this is only possible for the richest sites. For everybody else, I hope that they will at least produce a separate mobile version with a mobile-optimized design, because usability does suffer when using desktop-optimized sites on a phone, even when this is technically possible.
The original philosophy of the Web was to emphasize cross-platform design, so that a single site can be used everywhere. But this doesn’t work from a usability perspective, even when one can code the material so that it will display on phones.
Either the site will be too scaled-back for a desktop user or it will be too complex for a mobile user. The two usage scenarios are so different that they require different designs.
The only place you shouldn’t skimp is on recruiting representative users, because if you test the wrong people, you’re testing whether the design works for somebody who won’t actually be using it (or who know too much to be stumped by usability problems, in the case of testing people from within your own company).
Everything else is negotiable and can be done on the cheap. I already said that you can run the study yourself, so that’s “free”, except obviously from the cost of your time, but it only takes a few hours to test the recommended 5 users, and you can actually get away with testing 3 if you’re really pressed for time.
You don’t need any equipment, video cameras, one-way mirrors, or analysis software. You don’t even need a computer, if you’re testing a paper prototype.
Otherwise, a laptop or any other available computer will do, and you can run the test in a small conference room or even a regular office.
You do have to close the door, though, to avoid disrupting the user and to safeguard their anonymity, so you can’t test in a cubicle. Just tape a note to the door saying “Usability Test In Progress: Do Not Disturb”. (And remember to take it down between sessions, or people will stop respecting the sign.)
No, we frequently see users access the breadcrumbs in testing, either to check where they are in a site or to navigate to a higher level.
So breadcrumbs are definitely useful. Just as important, they don’t harm those users who don’t use them. Some studies have found that many users don’t use breadcrumbs.
But that’s OK, because the breadcrumbs don’t cause any trouble for these users, and since they’re a very lightweight design element, breadcrumbs are worth including for the substantial good they offer to those users who do use them.
Yes. First, the definition of art vs. design allows you to do anything in an art project, because it doesn’t serve a utilitarian purpose.
Even though there certainly would be a business purpose in something like a portfolio site, the standard usability guidelines still wouldn’t be as critical, for two reasons:
First, the target audience would be people with vastly superior Web skills (other designers, Internet managers, and the like). And second, people typically don’t do much when visiting a portfolio other than browse it and admire it.
Thus, they won’t be as dependent on easily-accessed features as users of, say, a home banking site where it would be a disaster if people transferred money to the wrong account.
Amazon is a great case study in the difference between total user experience and the on-screen user interface.
They owe their success to a lot of off-screen aspects of the total user experience, including comprehensive product selection, informative confirmation emails, and rock-solid fulfillment. They also have reasonably good prices, though never the absolute lowest, which proves that it does work to compete on the quality of the user experience and not just on price.
The screen-design is also good in terms of rich product information, including helpful customer reviews. Amazon was one of the first companies to recognize that it’s OK to include negative reviews: this increases credibility and people will just buy something else instead, so they don’t lose the order, even if they lose that particular sale.
All this said, Amazon is not a good model for other sites, because the pages are overwhelmingly complex with much too many features, many of which don’t help users in considering the current product.
Amazon can get away with this complexity because most users are familiar with its design because they shop there so often. But a first-time user would be baffled. Since most sites don’t have people who shop there as much as they do on Amazon, most sites need a simpler design.
Amazon is also not good at helping shoppers understand a product area. Because it’s such a general store (selling everything) and because of its origin as a bookstore (where there’s really no such thing as a product space; only individual books and authors) Amazon is great at telling people about individual products, but terrible at teaching people how they should think about a product category.
This is the great opportunity for specialized sites: they can educate users about their specialty and offer tools that are optimized for the characteristics of that particular product space.
Usability is always relative to two things: who are the users, and what are they trying to accomplish with the UI?
That’s why we can’t just have one recommended design and just replace the logo to create a new site.
So, for example, if people are trying to just deal with a small number of things, you could simply list them all.
But if the task required users to consider a large number of options, you would need features to find, select, winnow, and sort the options, plus maybe even some kind of visualization tool.
All of these features would be overkill for, say, a restaurant group with 3 restaurants, but they’d be needed for McDonald’s location finder, which would also need a language selector and other internationalization features.
Similarly, people who are highly skilled in a domain would need a different design than less-knowledgeable users. A classic example is medical information: to maximize usability, you need different designs (following different guidelines) for doctors and for patients.
Yes, but. The big “but” here is definitely that it is much harder to ensure usability the more features you cram onto a page.
Simplicity is usually the better choice. But if you’re in a situation where your users do demand lots of features, then you need to polish the design through many rounds of iterative usability testing.
You must work harder to solve this more difficult problem, and it’s much more risky to release something complex that hasn’t been tested with users than it is to release something simple.
Exclusive interview for WDD by Walter Apai.
How long have today’s most popular websites been around? This is a survey of when today’s top 50 websites began their lives.
What we here at Pingdom wanted to discover when we made this survey was not just how old the most popular sites are, but to see if we could discover any interesting trends based on that, and we think we did.
For the extra curious we’ve also included a table with the individual launch years for all of the top websites at the bottom of the article.
A note about site inclusion/exclusion: We based this chart on the Alexa top 50 sites in the US. We should note here that we filtered out a few sites from the top 50 because we considered them sites that people don’t normally visit. Some ad networks (like doubleclick.com) always end up in artificially high positions due to the way Alexa measures, for example. We tried to focus on websites that people actually use. After the filtering, we ended up with 42 sites (the list is available at the bottom of this article).
Although the above chart pretty much speaks for itself, especially with the red trend curve, here are a few observations based on the data we collected.
Calculations were based on the filtered number of sites, i.e. 42. (See explanation under the chart for how we came to that number.)
The Web is still young (a teenager in human years), so it’s difficult to draw any long-ranging conclusions from the gathered data, but we can at least make some reasonable assumptions (and pose a few questions) based on it.
According to the latest numbers, there are more than 162 million websites on the internet today. We have come a long way since the first baby steps of the World Wide Web. Back in January of 1996 we had 100,000 websites, and if we go back to mid-1993 there were only a total of 130 websites. Not much need for Google in those days…
So how has the number of websites grown over time? Here is how we got from 1 to 162 million websites:
The graph covers December 1990 to March 2008.
The world’s first website
Wonder about that one, single website back in December of 1990? That was info.cern.ch, the first-ever website and web server, created by Tim Berners-Lee (inventor of the WWW).
It’s amazing how the web has gone from consisting of just this first little web page to the huge network of millions and millions of websites that it is today, and how pervasive the web has become in our society. We do our banking online, read our news online, have our encyclopedias online, meet friends online. And all this has happened since 1990.
The definition of what counts as a website varies, but the numbers here are hostnames connected to sites that respond. The numbers from Netcraft (August 1995 and onward) include parked pages as well, so it is larger than the number of “active” websites.
Windows® Azure is a cloud services operating system that serves as the development, service hosting and service management environment for the Windows Azure Platform. Windows Azure provides developers with on-demand compute and storage to host, scale, and manage Web applications on the Internet through Microsoft® data centers.

Sreelakshmi Suresh, the Youngest Web Designer Girl
Sreelakshmi Suresh is the Youngest Web Designer Girl of the World. Designing websites is a passion for Sreelakshmi. At the age of eight she is an expert web designer and created the World Record by designing and developing the official website of her school (www.presentationhss.com).And now she is the Youngest CEO (eDesign) also. She has won several national & international awards for her excellence in web designing. Sreelakshmi Suresh is the Youngest Ever Member of the Association of American Webmasters and has already bagged about 26 National and International honours including the prestigious Global Internet Directories Gold Award and Golden Web Awards. "Sreelakshmi Suresh is not your average eight year old. When children her age have to be torn away from the television to their homework, she is spinning grand web designs" Hindustan Times". "I must say our school is blessed to have such a talent" says Sr. Roselit, Head Mistress of her school. Sreelakshmi Suresh is now appointed as the Brand Ambassador ofInfoGroup and she is the Director of YGlobes Technologies Inc.
Now, 5th standard student of Presentation Higher Secondary School, Kozhikode, Kerala. Just eight-years old, Sreelakshmi Suresh has designed and developed a website for her school and created new world record.Sreelakshmi had been devoting a lot of time on the computer even before she started school. However, the same has not stopped her from pursuing her studies and her extra curricular activities. All her holidays were spent before the computer creating and modifying the website designs. The school website, though officially launched on the 15th of January, 2007, was actually available on the web from September 2006 onwards. Accolades and tributes started pouring in from all sources since the site became available on the web. Initially, she used to draw pictures using Paint and slowly started preparing web pages in MSWord. Then started using FrontPage to develop web pages, which is more equipped and user friendly. Now she has started using DreamWeaver and animation softwares for Web Designing. Sreelakshmi Suresh is the only child of Adv. Suresh Menon and Mrs. Viju Suresh. She is residing at Chevayoor of Kozhikode district in Kerala.
when children of her age are glued to the TV, eight-year-old Sreelakshmi Suresh is busy exploring web designing.
The fourth standard student of Presentation High Secondary School in Kozhikode, Kerala, has proved her mettle by designing her school website, to be launched on January 15, 2007.
The Association of American Webmasters has honoured her with its official membership, a rare honour for a girl so young.
Daughter of Suresh Menon, an advocate and Viju Suresh, a schoolteacher, Sreelakshmi’s brush with the digital world began at the age of four.Initially, a little prodding was needed. But once she took off it was a flight to the glory. “After studies I used to spend hours before the terminal. Since my school did not have an official site, I took it as a challenge to design one,” explains Sreelakshmi.
For students of her school, she is a role model.
“She is an inspiration for even grown up students… our school is blessed with such a talented girl,” school headmistress Sister Roselit praises her.
THE NEXT ONE IS MY BEST FRIEND
Vishnu Prasad Naidu
This is an interview on him by a leading newspaper in India, THE HINDU
For a student of class X, young Vishnu Prasad’s understanding of the Internet is amazing. Listen to him for five minutes and you realise that the lad aims to emerge a business tycoon in the not too distant future.
Prasad, however, has had no formal education in .Net technology or networking techniques. He hails from a middle-class family. His father is a Central Government employee while his mother is a homemaker. Prasad himself is a product of a State Board institution in Coimbatore.
The family bought a computer when the lad was studying in class VIII. “I had always yearned to make money online. I surfed the Net, gathered information and created my first blog ‘dvishnu123.blogspot.com.”
“I was enthused by the number of visitors to my blog. I went ahead and registered in social networking sites such as Orkut and managed to reach out to a wider group. That was in January 2008. Around that time I first got the feel of earning online from the Ads on my Web site,www.dvishnu.com. I earned $60,” recalls Prasad.
Today, when most youngsters in his age group think of relaxing a bit after writing the Class X examination, he is busy giving tips to bloggers on how to make money, how to get traffic to one’s site, and so on.
At 15, he owns around 50 Web-based businesses, Web sites and domain names. “I am a domain reseller. I understand SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). I have 10 sites to manage,” says Prasad.
(SEO is the practice of optimising a Web site to increase the traffic the site receives from search engines).
But at 15, can a minor start a company in his own capacity, eWorld asked him. Prasad replies promptly that he is being helped by a third-year engineering student, his Orkut friend, from Kumbakonam. Also, his maternal uncle (a retired headmaster) is the guiding hand behind the show.
“My dream is to enable worldwide users benefit from my service,” he says, and cites Wikipedia as an example.
He has floated a company Silver Star Solutions and established offices in Kumbakonam, Hyderabad, Chennai and Tiruchi. He has provided employment to 12 persons.
Over the past eighteen months, Vishnu’s turnover has crossed the Rs 7-lakh mark. “I’ve managed this by selling Ads links in my site, sold a single link for $200 and so on.”
How exactly does this happen? Prasad explains that the shopping advertisements on dvishnu.com attract those visiting his site. When they shop online, he gets paid a certain amount.
Has the meltdown affected his earnings? “Definitely. For an SEO, a client paid $25,000 last year, but he is offering only $4,000 this year.”
He has created www.5co.in, which is similar to blogger.com. The beta version is up and running. “It is a site for creating blogs, optimising template.”
Asked about the need for creating a similar site, Prasad says, “I want to be the first to create the world’s smallest ID.
‘in.com’ is the smallest ID at present. To beat this, I bought ‘in.vg’. My plan is to launch the world’s smallest e-mail ID, the world’s smallest Web blog and largest online portal. The deadline for this project is April 1, 2010.”
Intrigued, eWorld looked up Prasad’s Web sites and spoke to the third-year student who helps him.
His friend, Vijayakumar, has hosted riaon.com, a site that offers tips on the latest applications and services on the Net such as twitters and knoppix.
We asked how he handles the money being generated by the business. As with other questions, Prasad has a prompt reply: he reinvests the money in establishing offices at different places, in buying domains and in paying the employees.
This was his interview in Hindu newspaper, he is my best friend, who thinks very innovative and wana achieve, but unauthorised. He grew up to this extent without the help or guidance of any one. Everything grew on him from his own interest and the burning desire. If u think that he can be a great man in valley, pls contact me thro email (cloudsonstreet@yahoo.com),He has more ideas,and wana get some fame and limelight very soon. I can see the burning desire in him. SUPPORT VISHNU, who will create a
On this world of Internet.His Webpage: Un Countable - More than 200 PR3+ and others uncountable.Please contact him at info[at]dvishnu[dot]com if you wish to support him and give some torch!
Support young ppl !
