2008-08-26 20:00:00 -0400

As I’ve written here before, we’re really big fans of the efficiency and simplicity of command lines here at Zetetic. We actively use them at points in the PingMe and Tempo are considering expanding our use of them, in particular to include Graphical Keyboard User Interfaces.

So, some interesting reading:

• Mozilla UI designer Alex Faaborg on the GKUI
• Introductory article on Mozilla’s Ubiquity project
• Don Norman’s article on the return of the CLI for the ACM
• Aza Raskin’s (Humanized.com / Enso developer) blog post on the return of the CLI
