- Abstract
- Considers whether graphic user interfaces (GUI) are based on interface design principles that will enhance online searching in the long term. Traces GUI origins. Examines the design considerations underlying them. A good GUI design should empower users, communicate visuelly and encourage interaction. Using these design criteria, examines 2 newly released GUI: Data Times EyeQ 1.22 and Dow Jones N/R 5.0. Highlights some of the problems with their use and the trade-offs that are necessary in using GUIs
