![]() For the most part, interfaces are still conceived as separate, static screens and then linked together with relatively crude animations. The problem is that the design process hasn’t caught up to this change in technology. With today’s devices, everything can be animated-and increasingly everything is. Only now are we starting to get to a point where computing resources aren’t holding interfaces back anymore. It was still mostly pressed into service for small things, though, and rarely influenced the overall structure of interfaces. Example of a remarkably fluid animation in an early version of Mac OS.Īs computers got increasingly powerful, animation started to be used more frequently for things like maximizing windows or opening new tabs. Every state change was a hard cut.Īlthough there are some notable early examples of good interface animation that date all the way back to the original Macintosh (PDF), because of the limited graphical capabilities of computers back then, effective animation was the exception rather than the rule. Since their inception in the 1970s, graphical user interfaces were basically a series of static screens (PDF) linked together without any transitions. ![]() How did we get here? Let’s take a step back and quickly review the history leading up to this point. The problem isn’t with any of the individual transitions, but with the fact that the animations contradict each other. It’s only when they all try to play together as parts of a single experience that things get confusing. These animations might make sense if you designed the individual screens in a vacuum. The two zooming animations have completely different effects in this case. The two animations give us conflicting information about where the homescreen and the apps are located in space. The app is both inside its icon on the homescreen and next to the homescreen. Why is the icon above the app now? Where are all the other icons? And why does another homescreen appear next to the apps? We should get back to the icons around the app on the homescreen, but instead we see a stack of other apps. They’re still in their initial positions, laid out in a grid around the open app. When we tap the Overcast app icon on the homescreen, the icon zooms and morphs into the app. Some animation, while technically well executed, makes interfaces more confusing instead of less. But there’s one aspect of animation that nobody ever seems to talk about. So far, so uncontroversial, right? Animation is a good thing- when done well, at least. Sometimes all of these factors converge: when you minimize a window, would you be able to tell where it goes without the animation? How much longer would it take you to find the minimized window in the dock? Hard cuts make it difficult to understand state changes, because changing the entire page means you have to rescan the entire thing to see what changed. It can also be used to explain the meaning and relationships of interface elements, and even teach users how to do things-all without making an interface more complex. Brief books for people who make websites.įor example, animation can help offload some of the work (PDF) of processing interface changes from our brains to the screen.

![]() This novel, along with the seven others featuring the March family, is cherished for its cheerful depiction of domestic life, its wholesomeness, and its ability to teach life lessons without the preachy quality found in other children's novels.Īlcott began Little Women in 1868, after the Civil War, in which she had served as a nurse during the winter of 1862–1863. Little Women contains many autobiographical elements, and critics are quick to note that the stormy character Jo is modeled after Alcott herself. Still, Alcott's writing demonstrates her acceptance of the transcendentalist emphasis on self-reliance and independence. ![]() Although surrounded by transcendentalists, she eventually rejected the philosophy as too abstract, using fiction As a child, Alcott doted on Emerson and accompanied Thoreau on nature walks in the area of Walden Pond. She was a creative, difficult, and willful girl who was both moody and loyal. ![]() ![]() Recognizing their daughter's talent, Bronson and Abba placed heavy expectations on her. For thirty years, she did the housework and supported the family as a social worker. Responsibility fell on Alcott's mother, Abba, who came from a respected Boston family. Within a year, it failed, and while Alcott seemed flippant about the failure, this experience showed that Bronson could not be relied upon to support the family. In 1843, he initiated a largescale experiment known as Fruitlands, an effort to create a utopian society. A radical pioneer in education, his experiments yielded an erratic but thorough education for his daughters. (Transcendentalism is a philosophy that holds that there is an ideal spiritual reality beyond material reality.) Unemployed, he committed to educating his four daughters, Anna (Meg in Little Women), Louisa (Jo), Elizabeth (Beth), and May (Amy). Bronson Alcott, Louisa's father, was a transcendentalist thinker and writer who refused to take work that was not related to education or philosophy. Alcott's youth was shaped by both the philosophical climate and the poverty in which she lived. The Alcotts lived in Concord, Massachusetts, with friends and neighbors such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Nathaniel Hawthorne. Ironically, Alcott preferred her adult novels to the children's novels that account for her lasting fame. Barnard and Flora Fairchild) also wrote sensational novels and thrillers for adults, most of which are no longer in print. From the 1840s into the late 1860s, Alcott (under the pseudonyms A. Author Biographyīorn on November 29, 1832, in Germantown, Pennsylvania, Louisa May Alcott is best remembered for her books about the March family, especially her children's masterpiece, Little Women. The intricacies of education, housework, speech patterns, and manners are depicted with remarkable clarity, which better enables modern readers to envision and understand the world of the Marches. Into the story by the colorful minor characters, the development of the March girls, and the attention to detail. Almost any reader can identify with at least one of the four girls. Critics often note that the book's particular appeal lies in its illustration of a uniquely American household and its individual members. She never imagined, however, that Little Women would enchant generations of readers and become a classic of children's fiction. Although the author wrote the books reluctantly, she earned the money she sought and found that her subsequent titles of all kinds were widely read. Alcott wrote Good Wives which is now published with part one as a complete work. After part one was published as a complete work, readers demanded to know more about the fates of the Marches. The author dared to give her characters faults such as selfishness, vanity, temper, and bash-fulness-qualities never seen before in such young characters.Īlcott wrote the book for girls with the sole aim of making money with its publication. While some present-day readers find Jo and her sisters too good to be realistic, according to the standards of Alcott's society, the March girls are flawed and vulnerable. In fact, many boys find that they can relate to her almost as easily as girls can. Jo March is regarded as one of the most complete, self-possessed, and best-loved characters in children's literature. Its charm and innocence continue to engage readers, despite the fact that the social and familial reality depicted is very different from contemporary domestic life. Without a doubt, Little Women remains Louisa May Alcott's best-known work. "node" is of type Proxy.Node while "c" has the type Proxy.Controller.

![]() With a handful of returning activities, it takes advantage of the Switch's functionality to refine the edges of its spiritual predecessor. ![]() Wii Sports is available for the Nintendo Wii.Nintendo Switch Sports was announced at February's Nintendo Direct event, and fans of Wii Sports were instantly reminded of the game that they played all those years ago. Hopefully, this glitch brings the Wii Sports speedrunning scene into the spotlight, and even gets some new interested players to join the community. Some of the best games to watch during speedrunning events are the games that players wouldn't think of right away, such as Minecraft or Portal 2's Co-op mode. This is another big reason why this new exploit is such a surprise.Īll in all, this is an amazing find for fans of speedrunning. Especially by modern day standards when games like Cyberpunk 2077 are full of bugs and glitches, Nintendo's titles usually have pretty solid performance all around. While some of Nintendo's new titles like Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey have glitches, they're definitely not game breaking and a few and far between. While glitches in Nintendo games aren't the most rare things to find in the gaming industry, Nintendo does have a pretty strong reputation for having very polished games. Regardless, it's a very impressive find that is sure to breathe some new life into the Wii Sports speedrunning community. This Wii Sports glitch is just another excellent example of that, considering Wii Sports hasn't had any sort of revival since Wii Sports Club on the Wii U in 2013. Nintendo games are rife for wacky speedruns, with many Nintendo games have very dedicated, niche communities that take games to their limits. Naturally, this glitch will likely change the current Wii Sports golfing speedrun route in a big way. For example, if a player hits the ball in a pond or lake, disconnects their Wii remote, double hits, and reconnects their Wii remote, that player can take their shot while standing on the water. This state allows players to hit the ball twice, but it also allows players to reconnect in out of bounds zones and hit from there. Plyd823 discovered that if a player disconnects their Wii remote controller during a shot, the player's Mii character will enter into a disconnected state. The glitch is fairly simple to grasp, but it lets players do some pretty incredible things over the course of the Wii golfing game. RELATED: Mario Golf: Super Rush Confirmed for Nintendo Switch Now, one Wii Sports golfing speedrunner going by the username Plyd823 has found a new glitch in the golfing mode that lets players take shots from anywhere on the course. ![]() Thanks to Wii Sports being a pack-in title for the Wii, it holds the distinction of being the best selling Nintendo game of all time, selling a staggering 82.9 million copies.Īs such, Wii Sports likely holds a special place in a lot of players' hearts and has continued to stay alive in the Nintendo community despite being about 15 years old. Wii Sports is a well remembered Wii title for plenty of players out there, as nearly every single Wii owner likely had a copy of the game. ![]() Since it is a portable application, you do not need to install it. The best part is that it lets you add virtually unlimited accounts. However, the tool still works for old version of Skype.

It is especially used to manage meetings, video conferences and other video calling functions. Skype is a popular VoIP software affluently used by Home users and business people for plenty of reasons. Let’s not delve too much into the reasons why would someone have multiple accounts on Skype or other services. Such segregation helps in maintaining personal and professional relationships more conscientiously.
