Business: Trends in Future Web Designs: What’s Next for the HCI Professional?
One thing is certain—the amount of information available on the Web continues to grow at a dizzying pace. For a Web site to add significant value to the user, it must provide an overview of accessible information to all users of varying Web expertise. This article attempts to outline many of the new interaction trends for information management that can now be observed on the World Wide Web. This overview was prepared with an eye toward attempting to ferret out research techniques and methods that might be most advantageous to a HCI (human–computer interaction) professional working on future Web designs.
