Share your new blog post with your friends on Facebook

“This is an opt-in feature -- you'll be able to control whether or not you want to send your posts to Facebook, and of course we'll only do this when you're creating posts on the blogs you publicize. We see this as a great way to help you let your friends on Facebook know that you've updated your blog.”

Social Design “Interactive software has evolved over the past

forty years to provide increasingly accessible user interfaces to increasingly powerful functionality. The earliest software users were programmers as well. Their deep knowledge of the technology and personal commitment to exploiting it made them highly tolerant of complex interactive models and primitive visual displays. Today’s users are very different. [snip]

Usability has become a central concern in software development. Its focus is increasingly being broadened to recognize the importance of delivering a good user experience that encompasses all aspects of the product.”

Experience is the New Black Blog: GetOutSmart.com The new experience echelon expands

beyond just the visual sense introduced in the 2nd echelon.  It includes and values the full sensation and experience of the user in the context of their immediate goals and preferences. Rich Internet Applications are a new tool for this new echelon and provide businesses with a powerful means to help win the attention of new and existing markets.
