MICROINTERACTIONS
Christian Crumlish. Director of Product, CloudOn. With this book, Saffer’s new concept of microinteraction creates a valuable new design tool: filling in that vast middle ground between “Design Thinking” at the strategy level and “User Guidelines” at the very detailed level. WHAT IS A MICROINTERACTION? Microinteractions are contained product moments that revolve around a single use case—they have one main task. Every time you change a setting, sync your data or devices, set an alarm, pick a password, log in, set a status message, or favorite or “like” something, you are engaging with a microinteraction.ABOUT THE BOOK
All these little moments—which are typically not on any feature list and often ignored—can change a product from one that is tolerated to one that’s beloved. This book provides a new way of thinking about designing digital products: as a series of microinteractions that are essential to bringing personality and delight to applications and EXCERPTS | MICROINTERACTIONS Here is the Preface, Foreword, Chapter 1, and the Table of Contents from Microinteractions.. Another excerpt from Chapter 4 introduces Feedback and some principles for designing feedback, such as to convey the most with the least.. Don Norman has posted his foreword on his site!.

It was first implemented at Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Center as part of the Smalltalk operating environment that was installed on the lab’s bitmapped computer systems. “I first saw it there around 1975,” says Larry Tesler, then a PARC researcher.

MICROINTERACTIONS
DESIGNING WITH DETAILS THE ORIGINS OF FAMOUS MICROINTERACTIONS Fun stories and trivia about the origins of well-knownmicrointeractions:
AOL’s You’ve Got MailAutocomplete
> “I don’t feel when I look at a search box that it’s something > I did,” Gibbs said of Google Suggest. “It feels like this is > just how the world’s supposed to work. I don’t feel any personal > attachment to it unless I stop to think about it.”Autocorrect
> The notion of autocorrect was born when Hachamovitch began thinking > about a functionality that already existed in Word. Thanks to > Charles Simonyi, the longtime Microsoft executive widely recognized > as the father of graphical word processing, Word had a > “glossary” that could be used as a sort of auto-expander. You > could set up a string of words—like insert logo—which, when > typed and followed by a press of the F3 button, would get replaced > by a JPEG of your company’s logo. Hachamovitch realized that this > glossary could be used far more aggressively to correct common > mistakes. He drew up a little code that would allow you to press the > left arrow and F3 at any time and immediately replace teh with the. > His aha moment came when he realized that, because English words are > space-delimited, the space bar itself could trigger the replacement, > to make correction … automatic! Hachamovitch drew up a list of > common errors, and over the next years he and his team went on to > solve many of the thorniest. Seperate would automatically change to > separate. Accidental cap locks would adjust immediately (making dEAR > grEG into Dear Greg). One Microsoft manager dubbed them the > Department of Stupid PC Tricks. Blue Screen of DeathControl-Alt-Delete
> “It was a mistake,” Gates admits to an audience left laughing at > his honesty. “We could have had a single button, but the guy who > did the IBM keyboard design didn’t wanna give us our single > button.” David Bradley, an engineer who worked on the original IBM > PC, invented the combination which was originally designed to reboot> a PC.
Cut and Paste
> In 1974, a young engineer named Larry Tesler began working on an > application called Gypsy for the Xerox Alto computer. Gypsy was one > of the first word-processing applications ever, and the successor to > the groundbreaking Bravo, the first true WYSIWYG word-processing > program and the first program that could have the ability to change > fonts. Even though it was still a word-processing program, Gypsy was > a different kind of application altogether: it made use of a mouse > and a graphical user interface (GUI). Larry’s mission—and what > would become his rallying cry for decades to come—was to reduce > the modality of the interface, so that users wouldn’t have to > switch to a separate mode to perform actions. (His website is > http://www.nomodes.com, his Twitter handle is @nomodes, and even his > license plate reads NOMODES.) Larry wanted users, when they typed a > character key, to always have that character appear onscreen as > text—not an unreasonable expectation for a word-processing > application. This wasn’t the case in Bravo: typing only worked in > a particular mode; other times it triggered a function.>
> One of those functions was moving text from one part of the document > to another. In Bravo, users had to first select the destination, > then press the “I” or “R” keys to enter Insert or Replace > modes, then find and select the text to move, then finally press the > Escape key to execute the copy. Larry knew there was a better way to > perform this action, so he designed one that not only made use of > the mouse, but radically simplified this microinteraction. In Gypsy, > the user could select a piece of text, press the “Copy” function > key, then select the destination, and finally press the “Paste” > function key. No mode required. And thus, cut and paste was born. > —from _Microinteractions_Facebook’s Like
> The aggregation of the sentiment “I like this” makes room in the > comments section for longer accolades.Hamburger Menu
> It turns out that the burger comes from the Xerox “Star” > personal workstation, one of the earliest graphical user interfaces. > Its designer, Norm Cox, was responsible for the entire system’s > interface—including the icons that would effectively communicate > functionality to the earliest computer users. The hamburger, which > looks like a list, seemed like a good way to remind users of a menu> list.
Pull To Refresh
> Why make the user stop scrolling, lift their finger, then tap a > button? Why not have them continue the gesture that they are already > in the process of making? When I want to see newer stuff, I scroll > up. So I made scrolling itself the gesture.Scrollbars

Nice things people have been saying: MICROINTERACTIONS is a book I’ve wanted for a very long time. I’ve needed a thoughtful, insightful, and concise understanding how to look at interaction design at the atomic level. Dan’s delivered that inspades.”
_Jared Spool_
MICROINTERACTIONS is an essential guide to designing in today’s world where a typical person touches a hundred different user experiences each day, and only the clearest interactions will turn a new user experience into a cherished product. In this book, Dan Saffer turns the Cognitive Walkthrough on its head and takes it to the next level, creating a new model for defining interactions and illustrating the strength of designing for moments rather than systems. An easy jargon-free read and an invaluable reference, MICROINTERACTIONS is packed with vital principles backed up by a wide spectrum of useful real-world examples of what to do, and what not to do. You’ll get something out of reading any two pages, and get even more out of reading them again. The book is an example of its own teachings. Approachable, but with deeper insights as needed._Kevin Fox

Saffer has written a excellent, compact, and eminently readable volume on a subject under-valued and under-discussed in our industry: the art and science of creating small, delightful moments in our daily interactions with technology. I recommend it to any designer or programmer looking to enhance the desirability and polish the utility of their apps, sites or services, one interaction at a time._Robert Reimann

Dariel Fitzkee, the famous magician’s magician once stated, “Magic is both in the details and in the performance.” Interaction design is just like that. It is in reality creating a user illusion out of many tiny nuanced, interesting moments. Dan’s book, MICROINTERACTIONS shines a magnifying glass on these moments and teases out how to go from a good to a great “user illusion.” I highly recommend this book to every designer and implementer of user experiences in any medium._Bill Scott
Sr. Director, PayPal_ I have never before seen a book drill down to this level of detail into how interactions (let alone microinteractions) actually work. It is one of the better books on interaction design I’ve read. I’m going to give copies to my designers and product managers and require that they read it and explain it back to me._Christian Crumlish
Director of Product, CloudOn_ With this book, Saffer’s new concept of microinteraction creates a valuable new design tool: filling in that vast middle ground between “Design Thinking” at the strategy level and “User Guidelines” at the very detailed level. It is an excellent book that should be read not only by designers but everyone involved in bringing a productto market.

Head of Design, Parlay Labs_ FOREWORD BY DON NORMAN Yes, Don Norman. I can’t believe it either. A sample: > Are microinteractions details? Damn right: The magic is all in the> details.
>
> The “micro” in “microinteractions” implies it is about the > small things. Small? Yes. Unimportant? Absolutely not! > Microinteractions is about those critical details that make the > difference between a friendly experience and traumatic anxiety. As > Dan Saffer points out in his Preface, designers love to get the big > picture right. It’s a wonderful feeling. No problem is too large. > But even if the big picture is done right, unless the details are > also handled properly, the solution fails: the details are what > control the moment to moment experience. It is timely details that > lead to seamless interaction with our products. Alternatively, it is > the lack of attention to those details that lead to frustration, > irritation, and eventually an intense dislike of the product. Yes, > the big picture matters, but so too does the detailed picture. It is > attention to details that creates a smooth feeling of> accomplishment.
