Design da informação nos dias de hoje

Mais um texto de outro blog; dessa vez, do InfoTagle sobre como mudaram os princípios de design da informação na era de Web 2.0.

Um resumo dado pela própria autora:

Principles of Information Design for the New Web
Keep it Simple - Include only necessary functionality and provide a clean efficient design.
Make it Social - Meet users expectations by enabling connections through social tools.
Offer Alternate Navigation – Reflect the Zeitgeist of the website community and embrace alternate pathways to information including utilizing visual tools.

New Web Philosophies
Evolve – Today’s Website creators aren’t afraid to try new things. There is no right answer and everything doesn’t need to be figured out at the outset.
Be Nimble – Respond to advances in technology and changes in market needs. Be willing to abandon bad ideas
Be Open – Issue and API and design badges and widgets for your users – or they will design them for you.
