Datelens - A Revolutionary Scalable Calendar Interface

Datelens - A Revolutionary Scalable Calendar Interface: "Calendar applications for small handheld devices such as PDAs are growing in popularity. This led us to develop DateLens, a novel calendar interface that supports not only PDAs, but a range of devices, from desktop computers to Tablet PCs. It supports users in performing planning and analysis tasks by using a fisheye representation of dates coupled with compact overviews, user control over the visible timer period, and integrated search. This enables users to see overviews, easily navigate the calendar structure, and discover patterns and outliers. Moreover, DateLens takes advantage of each device, running quickly on PDAs and supporting ink on Tablet PCs. "

Design School Reputations

When potential students or project clients ask me which is the best

architecture or design school, I usually give them the names of a few

institutions but also insist: 'don't take my word for it, get hold of

current students or researchers there, and ask them what it's like'.

Even that approach is limited: people inside one institution are not

ideally placed to compare their own experience with that of their

peers in other ones. Citation league tables are a guide, but tell

only one part of the story. There's a gap here: 33 million people in

the US have rated a product, service, or person using an online

rating system - but not, so far as I can see, the big ticket purchase

of a design education. Design portal Core 77 hosts a lively forum in

which students exchange opinions about design courses and schools -

but these exchanges are anecdotal. Is there a ratings system for

education out there that I've missed?
