Insider Blogging looks at the employees blogs of our favorite companies, exposing the last legal way to get "inside information."
Yahool! has been busy with its mission to "expand the user's visual space," otherwise known throughout the blogosphere as the Yahoo! homepage redesign. Over at Read/WriteWeb, in a podcast interview with "VP of Front Doors" Tapan Bhat describes the challenges of using the programming language Ajax, and the extensive testing that was required. The interface is wider (but, not hugely wide -- plenty of white space on my tiny but self-described "widescreen" laptop), more muted (so Web 2.0), tab-heavy and more multi-media-rich. There's plenty of effusion at the Yahoo! User Interface Blog, where you can tour the "patterns" behind the redesign ("this is similar to creating a play. At any given time the view on the stage is only a small part of the action. The backstage, props, and other actors are all being prepared for the next scene. A home page can provide ways to allow a user to take a 'sneak peek' at additional content and essentially 'open up' the page space") and the many benefits of "Ajax-ifying" the design.
