Marc on AOL Personal Portals

posted: Jul 16, 2003 7:57:36 PM

Check out Marc Canter's quotes and comments on AOL's Personal Portals. Marc shows off some nifty Barbie doll and refridgerator oriented portal user interfaces.

I guess it was already 10-years ago I remember asking folks around me: why are all of the UIs we create based on rectangular windows? Of course, we were pretty proud in some ways of the having any windows at all, having come out of the character prompt days.

I wish I could show some of the great UI work that was done at Simmedia (where I worked) for now defunct dot-coms. Between the dot-com-crash and Netscape 4.x, some innovative UI work (from Simmedia and other firms, especially created in 2000-2001) has never really made it into circulation.
