Designers Take Control
The blue hyperlinks get a
face-lift and a new market
opens:
“Desperately Seeking Web
Designers”
Print vs Web = The Trap
Design firms use print
trained people for web
design.
The end result?
The wish to control goes out
of control.
Enter: CSS
Design Nazi Syndrome
Escaping The Layout
Yes, it’s a web page but
really…it’s on your monitor.
It can change with the click
of a mouse. It can look
different from computer to
computer and from one
platform to the other.
Out Of Control
A new generation of web
design emerges:
Introduction of technology
that makes things move
(blinking and scrolling
banners don’t count) and
sound goes live.
The Present
Live Audio. Live Video.
Streaming animation.
Dynamic HTML. Interactive
Animation. VR technology.
