  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?

Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

$5 Interactive Book App is wowing the critics

(bareboards2)
1 decade 3 years 4 months ago

From Paul Constant Stranger Blog: Fast Company has reviewed a kids' book for the iPad called The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore. It's created by former designer for Pixar named William Joyce, and the trailer is fantastic. The review allays some of my fears about the book. Especially this sentence: "...the interface design is so subtle it wasn't until I was about six pages in that I realized that every page of the app has some delightful feature embedded into it that you have to find for yourself." This is a problem we're going to have to confront sooner or later: Designers shouldn't make an e-book too much like a movie or a TV show, but they should clearly have a reason to make the e-book a digital experience. And an ideal e-book will warrant many re-readings; with a digital canvas, the story should be able to stretch and contract as much as a reader wants. This looks like a solid first step.
