Wustlog: Aesthetics, design, functionality

Can't you keep my hand to yourself?!

Friday, March 10

Presentation Zen has an excellent post contrasting Microsoft and Apple design philosophies. Also check out this (similar) comparison.

Please also note the CSS-enabled cursor control on mouseover of the Bill Gates slide.

See Sam's related post for a video of this.

Ok I still can't get over that utterly ridiculous slide Gates is standing in front of in Exhibit A.

If ever a static image has put epileptics at risk for a seizure, that would be the one.

i also enjoy the fact that it looks like Gates is about to get doused in a thunderstorm or something. why choose clouds? sure, there are such things as "happy" clouds, nice fluffy puffy sparse clouds on a sunny day... but these look pretty gloomy/rainy/ominous to me. or maybe i'm just getting the "ominous" vibe from all the microsoft branding in the slide...
