The "keep it simple" mentality is so misguided when put in the hands of many developers. Here's a simple example from Google Keep, but you can find it all over the place in apps, web, etc.<br /><br />The unlabeled options icons at the bottom of each note will be a mystery to novice users. Oh I know, those ignorant people, right? Make them ask for help or get frustrated or just say 'screw Google Keep' -- who cares what they think? (If you agree with this 'screw the novices' pov, then you've never had to be a tech support provider to a school or business).<br /><br />Though there is ample room across the bottom of the note for more icons, Keep only shows 4 of the 8 possible options, and of course, not the 4 that you might want... those other options are in a drop down list, if you're not a novice and don't understand that vertical dots means 'drop down list', if you're not a super novice and don't know what a drop down list is. Ah yes, screw the novices. And double screw tech support providers. I keep forgetting.<br /><br />I'd be willing to bet that most Keep users don't 'share' notes very often, if at all. I'll also bet that it's fairly rare to use Keep as a 'reminder' system -- we've got better tools for that. But those 2 options are forced on users as the first level choices, putting useful options like 'labels' buried in the 3-dot drop down.<br /><br />Ok, so these comments are probably less about Keep and more about the trend towards silly over-simplistic misguided UI fostered by material design that favors white-space over function. Here's a secret that nobody knows: "You can have both! White space AND function." Shhhh... don't let Google know, it might empower people. That'd be bad.<br />Greg Malonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14414333871750307009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-86983586538880682592015-10-17T19:21:45.627-07:002015-10-17T19:21:45.627-07:00How to select multiple tags when searching?How to select multiple tags when searching?rzborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04523311880606874402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-39673405254446254502015-09-24T06:02:19.594-07:002015-09-24T06:02:19.594-07:00It'd be awesome if you also had a keyboard com...It'd be awesome if you also had a keyboard command in chrome to auto-save to Google Keep.
