Web design Trends in 2011
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
The information superhighway has changed dramatically in 2010. For the first time, there is a mandatory place for mobile devices on the web. For more than 8 years, mobile devices required special wwwsites, special browsers and adapted writing. The iphone changed all that. Now users of mobile devices expect the same tier of service that a regular computer world browser provides. The online community has become more of a passageway of traffic than a reading mechanism.
Every day in 2011, millions of people use the internet to make calls, and find restaurants. They do it from handhelds. They also do it from iPads. With all this going on, what are the latest artful conception trends? We have all seen that less is more as the online community reduces to a medium that can be seen by both mobile devices and wired computers. Take a look at Facebook and Twitter. What do you notice? Less is more for these computer worldsites.
2010 and 2011 in world wide websites means streamlined, wwwsites without the bells and whistles that became popular in the 1990s. Back then it was very popular to have world wide websites with fire, dynamic HTML and many other things that don't matter. In 2011, wwwsites have gotten smarter.
Psychologists have educated designers to the fact that the customer can be steered by less items on a page. This progress became public knowledge about 3 years ago. Pages immediately slimmed down. Less meant more. Within 2 years, the most effective pages had less than 3 critical elements on them.
Designers are using softer colors and pages are taking on a pastel revolution of minimalism. The best example of this is the Twitter information superhighwaysite. The color choices exemplify this concept and the focus for mobile devices gives us a hint to the future of the internet. Mobile computer worldsites like Twitter will be an example of what success in the future will look like. Accomplishments in the future will be measured in the tens of millions of users. An information superhighwaysite with 100,000 users will be considered "small". Mobile devices will give us a freedom that the old internet could never provide. Unchained from the past, these trends will transcend the human condition.
As every single aspect of the world wide web goes mobile, we can expect to see a mobile version of YouTube as soon as every mobile device is able to process and run Youtube video. So we can expect that as time goes on, these trends to continue and our world wide web will become more mobile.
