Three quality of visual presentations at Mauro Cherubini’s moleskine

links — THE HYPERGURU on December 5, 2005 at 5:24 pm

Mauro Cherubini take note of three important principles when designing a presentation. I want to remember them:

[1] Legibility - distinctness that makes perception easy

[2] Readability - writing (print or handwriting) that can be easily read

[3] Clarity - free from obscurity and easy to understand; the comprehensibility of clear expression

Therefore the first level belong to the perception, the send to the presentation and the third to the content.

Thanks Mauro.

Towards a World Wide Database (WWDB)

links — THE HYPERGURU on October 28, 2005 at 10:59 pm

Minding the Planet gives a deep and futuristic speculation about the Web to come:

I believe the next big leap for the Web is what I am calling “The World Wide Database.” The World Wide Database is a globally distributed network of data records that reside on millions of nodes around the network which collectively behaves as a giant virtual, decentralized database system. Google Base is an attempt to try to build such a database on a single node. But I don’t think that approach will ultimately become the WWDB. At best it will be a huge data silo, or many silos in one place.
