Welcome back Web Review TV. I am your host Edward Perry. And this is Episode 3. Today we are going to cover a concept website called www.dontclickit.com. www.dontclickit.com is a website designed to explore new web interfaces where there is no clicking; instead to take an action just mouse over to the object and select from a pop-up menu. This is an interesting concept and I think you should take a look at inside yourself. So let's go to review and test drive the site.
Now welcome to this site called www.dontclick.it. Now this is the open end screen, it's in Flash. So you know you will need to have your Flash plug-in installed to view it. But I would also assume that you could do this page with a HTML and AJAX. Though I guess it was easier for them just to do it in Flash. So let's go and check out the website.
So as an oxymoron we have to actually click here to just play the animation. But once we get started we get to the website. Now basically all is you do is you just mouse over everything that you want to see. And you just continue going from page to page. You know so you want to get to your statistics, site clicks and visits. So you can really explore around this site. And there is nothing to surprise anything. We have all seen mouse-overs and do I miss the click with this interface? No. Now I think we have all see mouse-over interfaces, but I think this just takes it to the next level.
So this is pretty much the site. I would definitely check it out if you are a website designer or just interested in how things can be done. And you know I have been need to this redone in HTML and AJAX or even put on to an operating system. I think it's an interesting design. Alright well again as you can see that I vend it here on the Communicate with dontclickit.com in the bottom right hand corner. It gives you the staff@dontclick.it.
Send them some information if you have questions. Find them over there or send them to me and I'll follow up on them. So you don't click at the site. See how they did it. Maybe start up a little conversation with the authors. Well, thanks for watching. If you have any comments or suggestions please send them to comments@webreviewtv.com. The next episode will be reviewing futureme.org. Have a happy tech day.
