From: owner-3dui@hitl.washington.edu on behalf of Doug Bowman [bowman@vt.edu] Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2001 11:09 AM To: 3dui List Subject: new discussion site for post-PC interfaces [This message comes from Tony Iams. --db] There is a new Slash site at http://nooface.net to discuss post-PC interfaces. The goal of the site is to promote out-of-the-box thinking about truly next-generation user interfaces that are designed for new types of users and computing devices, and go beyond the WIMP (Windows, Icons, Menus, Pointing Device) method that most current interfaces are based on. Some of the topics discussed include visual user interfaces; web sensing and visualization; information appliance interfaces; user interface innovation; next-generation I/O peripherals; search interfaces; alternative web architectures; gesture input; 3D browsers; virtual worlds; game interfaces; wearable computing; data visualization; command-line interfaces; and UI development resources. Check it out if you're interested. http://nooface.net In Search Of The Post-PC Interface -- Doug A.
