The myth of the page fold: evidence from user testing
Posted Friday, September 18th, 2009 by Joe Leech
As web professionals, we all know that the concept of the page fold being an impenetrable barrier for users is a myth. Over the last 6 years we’ve watched over 800 user testing sessions between us and on only 3 occasions have we seen the page fold as a barrier to users getting to the content they want.

EPN | Platform voor de informatiesamenleving

  • Onderzoek van EPN toont aan dat ruim een op de tien Second Life-gebruikers eraan verslaafd is. Als criteria zijn o.a. gebruikt: minimaal twintig uur per week actief zijn in deze virtuele wereld en de mate van rusteloosheid, frustratie en irritatie zonder Second Life-activiteit. Respondenten beschouwen zichzelf eerder als verslaafd: een op de drie noemt zich zo. Het onderzoek is uitgevoerd met behulp van ruim 500 respondenten.



    Verder constateert EPN dat de hype rond deze virtuele wereld voorbij is: gebruikers ‘normaliseren’ en de virtuele omgevingen worden steeds gewoner. Niet meer alleen de pioniers, maar een bredere groep is actief in Second Life. Het aantal academisch geschoolden neemt behoorlijk af, en de gemiddelde respondent besteedt veel minder uur in de virtuele wereld.

THE USER IS THE CONTENT | Meeting of Minds - Antwerp '07

  • Indeed technological developments empowered people to express themselves and allowed them to participate in projects and share creations on a much larger scale than before. They also transformed the business of content distribution since part of the users is no longer interested in the whole lot offered by for instance news papers or music labels, but in their own selection of it.

    What is the value of this content? What is the impact of it on traditional media and publishing? Will we evolve to a more flexible copyright system? What are the influences of nations/states/regions and other regulators of the online/mobile market

Whenever you sign up with them for a service that requires a password (such as e-mail, My Yahoo, or personalized search), you are laying the groundwork for them to one day track your behavior across different parts of the Web through your online identity.
