Twitterrific for Twitter, developed @Iconfactory / @chockenberry (screenshots 2010) App demo
For shits and giggles I just tried switching the application style in #Linux to the old win9x style. But man, look at those useful signifiers! Buttons that are OBVIOUS. Windows that have clear EDGES. Scrollbars that are big enough to click, always visible and PROVIDE INFORMATION, helping giving me a ->mental model<- of the content. What the hell has happened to UI design in the past decade? Minimalism destroys #usability. #UI#UX#HCI#GUI#skeuomorphism#flatdesign
The very talented Wayne Roger recreated a Dieter Rams clock, but can you guess which is the real deal, and which was made with Sketch? Let us know your guesses 👀

Everything feels so bland and flat these days. I want my buttons to look like buttons, and my sliders to look like sliders. Please give me some texture and depth!
This kind of #FrutigerAero aesthetic always makes me so nostalgic for the days of Windows Vista. Despite being a terrible OS, its aesthetic was A Vibe. Strangely, I miss it while also associating it with sleazy corporate software.
The funniest thing about this: calling it "spatial computing", when it subscribes even more firmly to the desktop metaphor than any other #VR or #AR project out before.
You buy the #AppleVisionProbecause you don't want a more natural way of interacting with a computer, similar to how you would interact with everyday objects. You don't want this kind of ultimate #skeuomorphism. No, #Apple are selling you the exact opposite.
Because staring on various screens for 18 hours a day has actually become your default mode of existence. So this new normal is now able to push the natural 3D world in the background. Your immersion is complete, #spatialcomputing means the 2D desktop metaphor gets awarded the place in your life it already has. But emphasized. Interacting with the natural 3D world is slowly becoming a tedious afterthought to interacting with the computer.
