		<description><![CDATA[You know, I&#8217;ve just about had it with the poor design of all the address books out there. I use Apple&#8217;s built in Address Book at the moment, mostly because of iPhone integration and all that whatnot, but over the years I&#8217;ve used a LOT of different address management applications and they all operate with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I spend a lot of time working on designs for large, complex applications. These are typically B2B applications, SaaS applications, intranet applications &#8211; not necessarily public, consumer-type applications but rather enterprise applications. Five years ago we regularly delivered our designs as HTML and CSS files to our clients. The engineering team would, in turn, incorporate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was in a meeting a few weeks ago where there was an argument over whether to use &#8220;New&#8221; or &#8220;Add&#8221; as a label for a command. The truth is, they&#8217;re different and not interchangeable at all. The simplest way I can explain this is by showing this example: This is an example of a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I started out designing applications for the desktop on the Windows, Mac, and Unix (Motif) platforms. Now my design work is mixed between web based applications and desktop applications. Most of these are web-based enterprise-class applications. I like to draw upon many of the standards and interactions from desktop application design when I am designing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today I want to talk about using Context Menus in web application design. What is a context menu? A context menu is a menu that contains commands specific to the object that the cursor (* see note about touch screens, below) is currently pointing at &#8211; the &#8220;target object&#8221;. These are also sometimes called &#8220;right [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many of you may be familiar with the use of ellipses in menus, but do you know the rules for when to use them? On the right is the File menu from Firefox. Some of these menu items (such as &#8220;Open File&#8230;&#8221;) have an ellipsis after them and others (such as&#8221;New Window&#8221;) do not. An ellipsis is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I often see trees that have a single root item at Level 1. This root item is one parent from which the entire tree is descended (in the example below this is &#8220;Acme-MSU&#8221;). Because it&#8217;s there, all the other items in the tree are indented an extra 20 pixels. In any tree control the horizontal [...]]]></description>
