Uselessnism

Diese Präsentation ist vielleicht was für die Ostertage: Uselessnism on the Web, at BarCamp.

Moving images have an overpowering effect on human peripheral vision. This is a survival instinct from the time when it was of supreme importance to be aware of any saber-toothed tigers before they could sneak up on you. These days, tiger-avoidance is less of an issue, but anything that moves in our peripheral vision still dominates our awareness: it is very hard to, say, concentrate on reading text in the middle of the a page if there is a spinning logo up in the corner.

Unterhaltsam und lesenswert :)
