Reading Response Week1

Always observing others behaviors is interesting and also important to rethink our
interface design approach how people gesture when they eat food, read books, or
watch television. Studying natural senses are hard because it is more like studying
people’s inconscious system than conscious system. Also, there are culture differences which
sometimes make confusion of understanding each cultural gestures. Therefore, interaction
and interface designers might need to consider basic rules to design in global. According
to the article, “Natural Interfaces are not Natural”, I could thought how we need to think
for human-centered interfaces but every interfaces do not need to be natural. Then, what is
human-centered interface? Thinking for humans’ needs or convenience or rights or desires
or sensibilities?
In these days, people are getting in to a new media world which is extremely different from
the past. Our life patterns are changing very fast in every second, every moment. In contrast
to growth of technology development, new social network system awareness, such as how to
use social network in a better way or what can be dangerous part of using it, has hardness
to catch up the speed of development. For example, Facebook make people’s life change.
Every people are getting used to post and share their private activities in public, and also
people surf Facebook feed to look others private activities. Therefore, now we can guess
people’s life from the Facebook clues. However, I want to ask whether the information on
Facebook reliable or not. Can we trust all the information on the Facebook? In my opinion,
Facebook information can be reliable because people can judge information’s reliability
from looking where the information come from whom, but also it can be very dangerous because
on-line web information is also easy to fake people. In addition, Facebook is becoming
search engine that nowadays Google has been threaten. Facebook is more active and real-time
resources than Google, and people can verify information from facebook account rather than
search by Google to get resources’ website. Moreover, when people follow resource facebook
account which they are interested in, they can get information in a real-time moment when
something new just posted on facebook while we have to search information to check new
information every time in Google engine. However, easily accesible and real-time information
are occurring lots of problems nowadays like gossips and rumor spreading in a second without
verification. From the reading,”The Web Means the End of Forgetting”, the author says that
because of the information what we post keep remaining forever, people will change their
behavior that means it affects people’s life. In specific, some work place started to check
facebook when they hire a new worker, and people started to make several Facebook account
to prepare for this. How can we judge people’s personality by checking their facebook?
Why don’t we forgive some of mistakes people make in web?
In my opinion, we need to rethink what can be the real human-centered interface for Facebook
by considering human rights.
