Themes for Windows often requires different types of heavy and resource demanding 3rd party software, e.g. like ThemeXP and others. In this post I have collected the most popular themes that do not require additional 3rd party software, but just works out of the box. Don’t bother on trying them with Vista or XP because they just wont work.

Today to my big surprise I found out that my bank, Jyskebank, recently launched a web-based customer panel.

As a user experience expert I think such an open initiative a great thing to do as a company, since it may let the customers and users to speak up – in a more unformalized manner.

Back in September I got a HTC Touch Cruise.

User Experience
The phone is very slow to boot and become ready to use. It has boot times, which could be compared to normal Windows-based computers, which means around 20-50 seconds.

The user interface and the user interaction feels sluggish, very sluggish in fact. I upgraded to the newest firmware version available, but it didn’t reduce the slowness.

Compared to the Apple iPhone user interface and user interaction the iPhone is ages ahead.

The single positive thing about the HTC Touch Cruise is the availability of the TomTom navigation software, which transforms the HTC Touch Cruise into a really full-blown car navigation system.

Last week I turned down on my HTC Touch Cruise and started using my old Nokia E50 again as it is a lot more faster to use.

Why Free Software has poor usability, and how to improve it

When I wrote the first version of this article six years ago, I called it “Why Free Software usability tends to suck”. The best open source applications and operating systems are more usable now than they were then. But this is largely from slow incremental improvements, and low-level competition between projects and distributors. Major problems with the design process itself remain largely unfixed.

Many of these problems are with volunteer software in general, not Free Software in particular. Hobbyist proprietary programs are often hard to use for many of the same reasons. But the easiest way of getting volunteers to contribute to a program is to make it open source. And while thousands of people are now employed in developing Free Software, most of its developers are volunteers. So it’s in Free Software that we see volunteer software’s usability problems most often.

I’m a day to day OpenOffice user and I like OpenOffice, but over time I have stumbled over features, which was lacking – compared to Microsoft Office 2007. With the release of OpenOffice 3.0 in September a number of the features that I miss the most in my daily use of OpenOffice seems to get implemented and integrated. Here is my list features that OpenOffice lacks in comparison to Microsoft Office 2007.

1. Presenter Screen in Impress – Powerpoint has got a nifty and very user-friendly presenter view – as far as I can see, a presenter screen for Impress is in the works
2. Support for Office Open XML – seems to get integrated too
3. More polished UI – Calc seems to get a new theme for the 3.0 release
4. Performance – both in terms of speed and space – My experience: OpenOffice is slow, but it seems to get better and better
5. Native PDF-import – seems to be in the works
