Interaction Catalogue for Myfamily.com - 2007
Over time, designs and interaction models age and change. What this tends to mean is that applications become more disorganized and conflicted. At some time somebody notices that there are three ways to edit text, four conflicted styles of selecting between multiple items, and eight styles of navigation between groups of content. That's when it's time to do another inventory.
I've included the original Excel sheet as an image. Click on the thumbnail to view it. I've also included here a legend.
Legend:
in-line means that the process can be completed where the page is viewed
dedicated means that there is a single dedicated page for this activity away from it's context.
stepped means that a user must move through more than one off page in order to create the process
modal means that the user changes the capabilities of the viewing page to include edit functionality
off site means that the user must leave myfamily.com domain
N/A means not available
creating means adding the content to the site.
editing means changing the nature of the content (albums, text), or the meta data around the object (photos, albums)
reading refers to seeing the object in it's complete context, eg. with all the metadata
deleting means removing the object from the site.
