A List Apart: Articles: You Can Get There From Here: Websites for Learners about 6 hours ago
- narrative, interactive, and discoverable
- all human communication revolves around storytelling
- 6 more annotations...
- - narrative emerges from interrelationships between content items and helps readers turn fragmentary pieces of information into knowledge.
  - more context learners have, the better they can integrate what they find with what they already know and believe
  - Discoverability helps readers move seamlessly from one content object to another, allowing them to build mental and emotional relationships among many different pieces of information
  - Since a good understanding of how items relate to each other is key to a good online learning experience, we have to do more than provide simple hyperlinks to guide readers through our websites
  - Visual representations of the terrain we wish to travel, whether real or virtual, are wonderful, practical tools for helping us create context, discern relationships, and get around.
  - “People like to have meaningful (or at least entertaining) conversations, and to feel a sense of excitement and discovery. You give people all that and you’ve made a good Internet!”

Web 2.0 - What is it? on 2009-11-23
- "the
  web as a platform,"
- "Web 2.0" seemed to mean was something about democracy
- 14 more annotations...
- - web-based applications can now be made to work much more like desktop
    ones.
  - amateurs can
    surpass professionals, when they have the right kind of system to
    channel their efforts. Wikipedia
    may be the most famous. Experts have given Wikipedia middling
    reviews, but they miss the critical point: it's good enough. And
    it's free, which means people actually read it
  - democracy seems to win is in deciding what counts as
    news
  - sites suggest that voters do a significantly better job than human
    editors
  - Editors. They control the
    topics you can write about, and they can generally rewrite whatever
    you produce. The result is to damp extremes. Editing yields 95th
    percentile writing—95% of articles are improved by it, but 5% are
    dragged down
  - the best writing online should surpass
    the best in print
  - Selection beats damping
  - Never make users register, unless you need to in
    order to store something for them.
  - Err on the side of generosity.
  - Let users do what they want. If you
    don't and a competitor does, you're in trouble.
  - The ultimate way to be nice to users is to give them something for
    free that competitors charge for.
  - If you can figure out a way to
    turn a billion dollar industry into a fifty million dollar industry,
    so much the better, if all fifty million go to you.
  - Web 2.0 means using the web the way
    it's meant to be used
  - sailing with the wind
