http://thinkingspace.economist.com/#/exploreIts hard to tell what the best website I’ve ever come across would be. So this is the best one I’ve found today. It is simple, but an interesting idea portrayed in an innovative way by an unlikely group of people. Unlike most creative/design inspired sites, this site is about economics and economists. How they get their ideas and where they do their pondering. Interesting to think about what inspires me verses what inspires an economist.

http://www.bicworld.com/inter_en/index.aspI chose this website because it makes it near impossible to find or buy any of their products. When you first enter the site, it asks what language you would like: French or English. Because of satisficing, I chose English and thought that I would be fine. However, when I looked back at the very first page again I noticed the “country” option underneath the initial language bar. ”USA” was an option, but it was already too late for me as a user. Not only was that not clear, the English website was littered with tons of French, and none of the links were showing in my browser because I don’t have the latest Flash player. Not even the contact page! You can not only not view the items, but purchasing, contacting, etc just seem out of the question.

I chose this obscure site for my good link today. Although it is pretty simple and somewhat unnecessary, it uses technology in a fresh and creative way that entertains its audience without making the material too complex for the average user to understand and follow. http://onemilescroll.com/

I chose http://thetoke.com as my bad link for its lack of harmony between technology and audience need. The website itself is pretty cool, and his layouts are interesting. But it takes some time to figure out what things are, how to get to them, how to get back, etc. There are almost too many viewing choices, without any of them offering a clean, simple, interface that an internet newbie would be able to handle. He took full advantage of the technology at hand, however he may have left some members of his audience behind.
