Maemo Summit 2009: 10 Tips for Designing Mobile Widgets from rajesh lal on Vimeo.

Paperclip Principle

I gave this presentation at Amsterdam 10 Tips for designing Mobile Widgets and I am getting a lot of these emails about the Paperclip principle.

Paperclip Principle inspired by the most popular paper clip (GEM) is a principle for Designing Software User Interfaces which is based on a simple assumption and my experience that:

Most effective designs are least complicated

When designing a User Interface you need to take care of three things, The user interface should be

1. 1. Easy to Look At
2. 2. Easy to Understand
3. 3. Easy to Use

It is my belief that if you follow these three guidelines, you will achieve an effective design on developing an interface for any device.
