Early peak into Gnome 3’s potential
I am stoked to be designing a Gnome that kicks ass for hackers too. McCann is right: the ‘choice‘ between design for office monkeys and hacking monkeys is a false dichotomy. We can make both their lives better: they’re running (almost :=) the same cognitive architecture underneath. Writing for ourselves can be fucking sweet. If we’re eager and happy, we’ll make it better for everyone.
We want Gnome 3 to become…
* a transparent tool…
* a tool that accommodates complex tasks without breaking your focus.
* the WORK should occupy your mind, a familiar TOOL should disappear as you work through it, not at it.
* a tool that increasingly disappears in-hand as you become accustomed to it present-at-hand
* a toolbox that’s extremely fast to rummage through
