Interesting tips and tricks.
I’m really interested in getting your developer/designer opinions on this type of Flash interface.
The concept of on-line publications with flip-able pages has been around for quite a few years now but has never really taken off. Why? I know my view on the subject but am very curious to know what others think of the concept.
- Do you enjoy using publications presented this way or would you prefer to view a standard web page/PDF document instead?
- Although the text is a little too small in my own basic example, do you think that you would take the time to read a document/magazine presented this way?
- Might the technology be better suited towards certain types of publications, e.g. photography based, “coffee table” books?
- Would the page ‘flipping’ begin to annoy you after a few clicks?
Further examples of this concept in use can be viewed at:
As always, any opinions/observations/views are much appreciated.
