Microsoft Office Advertisement -- Designed to Scare People Away?
I stumbled across this advertisement for Microsoft Office today. It was actually interactive, if you moved over the center area it showed you the rest of the toolbar--but it didn't help. I look at this interface and it's clear to me that it's doing something to fonts, but what, I can't tell. It's incredibly busy. In this one small area I see at least four pulldowns scattered in between things that aren't pulldowns. It looks like a UI designers idea of hell. But apparently Microsoft not only considers this to be a good design, they consider it a feature worth advertising. Got me.
