It seems rather than sorting out the interfaces to try and make them easier, more intuitive and faster to navigate to your desired content were trying to find news ways of navigating the SAME old interfaces.

Scrolling through a long list is less efficient than simply being able to search and go right to the content you want.

I can see this being more intuitive. Making the interface more analogous to the real world and how you interact with it would make more sense to a broader group of people...but it also makes it more cumbersome to people, which is pretty much everyone here who are used to remotes, control pads and computers, as we're used to the control metaphors we use everyday.]]>May 28th 2010 5:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/28/toshiba-airswing-ui-puts-you-on-the-screen-with-your-data/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/28/toshiba-airswing-ui-puts-you-on-the-screen-with-your-data/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/23/mit-researchers-develop-the-most-fabulous-gesture-control-techni/) as it's 1000% more interesting and can lead to a whole lot more fun...

She can move her hand back and forth, and the fish follow it. Shake her hand fast, and the fish scattered. Hold her hand near the top of the screen and pretend she is dropping food into the tank and food would start dropping in the water.]]>May 28th 2010 6:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/28/toshiba-airswing-ui-puts-you-on-the-screen-with-your-data/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/28/toshiba-airswing-ui-puts-you-on-the-screen-with-your-data/I would hope most people wont need telling when they've moved their arms around right in front of them!
