Abstract

Mit HTML und diesem Buch kann wirklich jeder im Internet publizieren. Step-by-step-Touren vermitteln das grundlegende Know-how, das Sie in die Lage versetzt, in Eigenregie Homepages erstellen und diese einfallsreich, witzig und übersichtlich zu gestalten. Appetit auf die eigene Homepage machen die mehr als 200 Links zu den heißesten und coolsten HomePages im WWW. Alle Links sind von CD startbar. Dazu gibt es direkt einsetzbare Grafiken, Bars, Lines, Dots und Body-Backgrounds für Ihre WWWDokumente. Vom InfoKonsumenten zum InfoProduzenten. Systematisch führt das Buch in den Aufbau von HTML und in die HTML zugrundeliegende "Sprache" SGML ein. Ausgangspunkt ist dabei sowohl der derzeitige WWW-Standard HTML 2.0 als auch das aktuelle HTML 3.0 mit allen neu hinzugekommenen Möglichkeiten - z. B. mathematischen Formeln und Tabellen sowie den Netscape-Erweiterungen. Natürlich kommen auch aktuelle Trends wie die Handhabung von Client-Site-Imagemaps und des neuartigen Frames-Konzept nicht zu kurz. Trends und neue Entwicklungen. Dreh- und Angelpunkt aller Betrachtungen ist Windows 95. Komplett praxisorientiert zeigt das Buch alle Möglichkeiten grafischer Browser und Editoren unter Windows 95. Zur Sprache kommen HTML-Editoren wie HotMetal, HotDog, Home-Page-Creator, InternetAssistant von Microsoft etc. Auch neue Entwicklungen wie HotJava werden unter der Berücksichtigung ihrer zukünftigen Verwendbarkeit unter Windows 95 betrachtet. Und das Genialste daran: Ein Großteil der Software findet sich direkt startfähig auf der CD. Kurz & bündig. * Für ganz Eilige: Die eigene Homepage mit dem CompuServe Wizzard * SGML: Ein Standard für Textdokumente, die sich elektronisch speichern und austauschen lassen * HTML 2.0 und HTML 3.0: Der erfolgreiche Standard im World Wide Web und der aktuelle Vorschlag für das Publizieren im World Wide Web * HTML-Erweiterungen: neue Attribute zu offizieller Tags, neue Tags für die Schriftgestaltung und zur Einbindung von Multimedia-Dateien, Client-SiteImagemaps u. v. a. m. * Adressierungskonzepte im Internet: IP-Nummern, Anwendungsprotokolle, HTTP-URL's etc. * HTTP-Server und FTP für Windows * Ausblicke auf Java-Applets, Panorama, Hyper-G VRML und HTML als Standard für den elektronischen Informationsaustausch

"Am Anfang war Ananova. Die grünäugige Schönheit liest Nachrichten vor, lächelt dabei freundlich, schlägt die Augen auf und nieder. Nie verspricht sie sich. Letztere Qualität sollte auch Begriffsstutzigen deutlich machen, dass diese Nachrichtensprecherin nicht aus Fleisch und Blut ist. Ananova besteht aus Bytes, vom dunklen Haarschopf bis zu, den schlanken Füßen. Und seit sie im Frühjahr ihr Debüt als Aushängeschild der ehrwürdigen britischen Press Association (PA) gefeiert hat, gilt als ausgemacht, dass im Internet die Zeit der Cyberbabes angebrochen ist. Für die PA war die Idee, eine virtuelle Nachrichtensprecherin zu entwickeln, ein Risiko. Würden die Kunden, die von der PA vor allem seriöse Berichterstattung ohne Glanz und Glamour erwarten, diesen Bruch mit der Tradition dulden? Genau das taten sie - Ananova ist eines der bestbesuchten britischen Nachrichtenangebote im Internet. Vor allem jüngere Nutzer gehören zu den Fans. Damit hat die PA ihr Ziel erreicht: Den teuren Investitionen ins Internet sollten endlich Deckungsbeiträge durch Werbung entgegengestellt werden. Diese Aufgabe erfüllt Ananova mit Leichtigkeit - und verkauft nebenher so allerlei Dinge, die das Leben angenehmer machen oder einfach nur den Kunden um ein paar Pfund erleichtern. Die Provision landet bei der PA. Letztlich hat sich das Risiko vor allem dadurch bezahlt gemacht, dass der Mobiltelefonkonzern Orange, ein Ableger von France Telecom, die weltweiten Nutzungsrechte an dem Cybergeschöpf für die stolze- Summe von umgerechnet über 300 Millionen Mark erworben hat. Das fordert die Nachfolgerinnen heraus - auch wenn Ananovas Schwestern nicht auf das schnöde Lesen von Nachrichten beschränkt sind. Sie sollen vor allem dazu dienen, den E-Commerce anzukurbeln. Dazu werden diese Kreuzungen aus Emma Peel und Karlheinz Köpcke von ihren meist männlichen Programmierern reich]ich mit sekundaren Geschlechtsmerkmalen ausgestattet. Weisheiten der realen Welt gelten nun mal auch im Internet: Sex sells, selbst wenn es nur Cybersex ist. Die neue Generation der Ananovas hört auf den schönen Namen Eva, oder auf den weniger schönen Namen TMmy: Die Softwareschmiede Stratumsoft hat rund 60 der Cyberwesen auf Halde und wartet nun auf Abnehmer. Die Konkurrenz von Digital Animations Group, Schöpfer von Ananova, stellten TMmy kürzlich beim Edinburgh Festival vor Vor allem beim Kundenkontakt sollen die Cyberbabes eingesetzt werden: Der größte Teil der Anfragen in jedem Call Center könne mit standardisierten Antworten abgehandelt werden, argumentiert Stratumsoft. Da in relativ kurzer Zeit ein großer Teil solcher Anfragen über das Internet abgewickelt werden, sei für derartige Routiiie-Arbeit eine charmante Cyber-Dame genau die Richtige. Und Kundendienst wird immer bedeutender, besonders beim E-Commerce: Nach einer Studie des US-Marktanalysten Creative Good verlieren Cyber-Händler pro Jahr mehr als 13 Milliarden Mark an Umsatz durch mangelnde Kundenbetreuung. Da sind rund 350 000 Mark Investition für eine Cyberdame beinahe Kleingeld. Der Trick bei den Evas und TMmys ist ihre Internet-Tauglichkeit: Sie sind ladefreundliche Java-Applikationen, die keine allzu langen Downloads verursachen. Klug hat dabei die Erfahrung gemacht: Der in Konkurs gegangene Modehändler Boo.com verdross tausende potenzielle Käufer durch die quälend langen Ladezeiten der Cyber-Verkäuferin Miss Boo. Die Einsatzmöglichkeiten, der künstlichen Wesen sind fast unbeschränkt. So 'dürfte eine nach persönlichen Maßen und Fettpölsterchen einstellbare, Cyberlady nur noch eine, Frage der Zeit sein. Die kann dann anprobieren, was online gekauft werden soll. Was allerdings nur der Übergangsstadium dazu sein dürfte, dass jeder seinen eigenen Cyber-Ableger im Internet zum Shopping schicken kann. Diese so genannten Avatare sind zwar heute noch recht primitiv - aber wir wissen ja, dass Cyberjahre schnell vergehen."

Abstract

Reports the results of a recent study by Coopers and Lybrand Consulting (CLC). Revealed that the Internet and WWW are having a negative effect on television viewing while having a positive effect on the sale of print media. 3 groups of users were defined: communicators, information seekers, and browsers. Adds that another survey by FIND/SVP identified 4 groups of users: recreational consumers, occupational consumers, corporate users, and academic users. Spotlights several interesting sites, such as the Census Bureau and Economic Research Service, which are research-based. Mentions Toiletology 101, on WC maintenance and repair, and several online versions of print publications such as National Geographic, The Nation, Motor Trend Online, and The Washington Post

Abstract

Discusses various structural searching methods available on the Web. some databases such as the Brookhaven Protein Database use keyword searching which does not provide the desired substructure search capabilities. Others like CS ChemFinder and MDL's Chemscape use graphical plug in programs. Although plug in programs provide more capabilities, users first have to obtain a copy of the programs. Due to this limitation, Tripo's WebSketch and ACD Interactive Lab adopt a different approach. Using JAVA applets, users create and display a structure query of the molecule on the web page without using other software. The new technique is likely to extend itself to other electronic publications

Abstract

Zur Erreichung einer für den Besucher optimal ausgerichteten Website sind wesentliche Aufgaben bereits in der Vorbereitungsphase zu erarbeiten, unter anderem Zielgruppenermittlung, Bedürfnisfeststellung sowie Strukturierung des Angebots. Eine gute oder auch weniger gelungene Umsetzung dieser Kriterien kann an Beispielen aus der Praxis am Besten veranschaulicht werden. Um eine ungefähre Vergleichbarkeit der Angebote zu erhalten, sind im Folgenden nur die Seiten von Öffentlichen Bibliotheken gleicher Größenklasse nach Bix verwendet worden, und zwar der Klasse 4 (15 000 bis 30 000 Einwohner). Hier ist die Notwendigkeit einer allgemeinen Verbesserung des virtuellen Angebots am meisten gegeben.

Mit einer Übersicht zu Usability-Kriterien: Ten Usability Heuristics I. Visibility ofsystem status The system should always keep users informed about what is going on, through appropriate feedback within reasonable time. II. Match between system and the real world The system should speak the users' language, with words, phrases and concepts familiar to the user, rather than system-oriented terms. Follow real-world conventions, making information appear in a natural and logical order. III. User control and freedom Users often choose system functions by mistake and will need a clearly marked »emergency extra to leave the unwanted state without having to go through an extended dialogue. Support undo and redo. IV. Consistency and standards Users should not have to wonder whether different words, situations, or actions mean the same thing. Follow platform conventions. V. Error prevention Even better than good error messages is a careful design which prevents a problem from occurring in the first place. VI. Recognition rather than recall Make objects, actions, and options visible. The user should not have to remember information from one Part of the dialogue to another. Instructions for use of the system should be visible or easily retrievable whenever appropriate. VII. Flexibility and efficiency of use Accelerators - unseen by the novice user- may often speed up the interaction for the expert user such that the system can cater to both inexperienced and experienced users. Allow users to tailor frequent actions. VIII. Aesthetic and minimalist design Dialogues should not contain information which is irrelevant or rarely needed. Every extra unit of information in a dialogue competes with the relevant units of information and diminishes their relative visibility. IX. Help users recognize, diagnose, and recover from errors Error messages should be expressed in plain language (no codes), precisely indicate the problem, and constructively suggest a solution. X. Help and documentation Even though it is better if the system can be used without documentation, it may be necessary to provide help and documentation. Any such information should be easy to search, focused an the user's task, list concrete steps to be carried out, and not be too large.

Abstract

Human beings are information omnivores: we are constantly collecting, labeling, and organizing data. But today, the shift from the physical to the digital is mixing, burning, and ripping our lives apart. In the past, everything had its one place--the physical world demanded it--but now everything has its places: multiple categories, multiple shelves. Simply put, everything is suddenly miscellaneous. In Everything Is Miscellaneous, David Weinberger charts the new principles of digital order that are remaking business, education, politics, science, and culture. In his rollicking tour of the rise of the miscellaneous, he examines why the Dewey decimal system is stretched to the breaking point, how Rand McNally decides what information not to include in a physical map (and why Google Earth is winning that battle), how Staples stores emulate online shopping to increase sales, why your children's teachers will stop having them memorize facts, and how the shift to digital music stands as the model for the future in virtually every industry. Finally, he shows how by "going miscellaneous," anyone can reap rewards from the deluge of information in modern work and life. From A to Z, Everything Is Miscellaneous will completely reshape the way you think--and what you know--about the world.

Abstract

Many information professionals feel that the time is still far off when the WWW can offer the combined funtionality and content of traditional online and CD-ROM databases, but there have been a number of recent Web developments to reflect on. Describes the testing and launch by Ovid of its Java client which, in effect, allows access to its databases on the Web with full search functionality, and the initiative of Euromonitor in providing Web access to its whole collection of consumer research reports and its entire database of business sources. Also reviews the service of a newcomer to the information scene, Information Quest (IQ) founded by Dawson Holdings which has made an agreement with Infonautics to offer access to its Electric Library database thus adding over 1.000 reference, consumer and business publications to its Web based journal service

Abstract

A unique collection of historical material covering the lives and events of an English village between 1400 and 1750 has been made available via a WWW enabled information retrieval system. Since the expected readership of the documents ranges from school children to experienced researchers, providing this information in an easily accessible form has offered many challenges requiring tools to aid searching and browsing. The file structure of the document collection was replaced by an database, enabling query results to be presented on the fly. A Java interface displays each user's context in a form that allows for easy and intuitive relevance feedback

Abstract

Presents an approach that integrates searching and browsing in a manner that improves both paradigms. When browsing is the primary task, it enables semantic content-based tailoring of Web maps in both the generation as well as the visualization phases. When search is the primary task, it enables contextualization of the results by augmenting them with the documents' neighbourhoods. This approach is embodied in WebCutter, a client-server system fully integrated with Web software. WebCutter consists of a map generator running off a standard Web server and a map visualization client implemented as a Java applet runalble from any standard Web browser and requiring no installation or external plug-in application. WebCutter is in beta stage and is in the process of being integrated into the Lotus Domino application product line

Abstract

The KMODDL (kinematic models for design digital library) is a digital library based on a historical collection of kinematic models made of steel and bronze. The digital library contains four types of learning modules including textual materials, QuickTime virtual reality movies, Java simulations, and stereolithographic files of the physical models. The authors report an evaluation study on the uses of the KMODDL in two undergraduate classes. This research reveals that the users in different classes encountered different usability problems, and reported quantitatively different subjective experiences. Further, the results indicate that depending on the subject area, the two user groups preferred different types of learning modules, resulting in different uses of the available materials and different learning outcomes. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for future digital library design.

Abstract

The Internet is having a great impact not only on how librarians work but on how they deal with the organizations and/or sources who provide the information. Examines problems associated with dealing with the Internet: how can relevant information be located; how can the quality of the source be validated; what costs are acceptable; and what resource is there if the information is defective. Offers advice on the use of the Internet

Abstract

Discusses different types of quality problems having their roots in the Internet and some possible solutions. Gives a provisional definition of WWW information quality. Presents some of the findings from an empirical survey of Danish academic and business users of the Internet. Concludes that only natural intelligence will be able to cope with the enormous task of filtering and distilling usable and useful information needles from the Internet haystack. Development of new and more efficient tools for the retrieval of quality information is extremely urgent

Abstract

Describes the development of a Web Library Guide at Birmingham University, UK. Having developed a hypertext guide using Asymetrix Toolbook which gave guidance to users on the subjects and services available in the main library of the university, the information was repackaged for loading on to the WWW. Outlines the reasons for this move, explains the process of the transposition, and suggests future possibilities for the project

Abstract

Godert notes that, having survived a period where we were drowning in information, we seem to be in a period where we are happily surfing the Internet. This communication considers the social implications of this change in fundamental metaphors about our relationship to information. It is first proposed that, though a paradigm shift has not occured, the significance of the change should not be minimized. The similarities and differences between surfing and drowning are then considered. Questions suggested by these similarities and differences are offered for consideration
