Some feedback on Seesmic Look

I spent another 30 minutes with Seesmic Look now, and I wrote down issues I found with the UI.

As I mentioned as a tweet (http://twitter.com/rrelyea/statuses/8035779666)

Bunch of nits:

  • no mouse way to page up. seems like when you click the top middle section of the scrollbar, it goes up 1 item, not one page.
  • want to be able to read several items at one time.  The large font for the latest post doesn't make that easy. I don’t want to have to wait to scroll between each item.  I think I like the large font, but more experimentation should be done. (and I should try it more…it may be fine).
  • when i click on an item, the dot next to it doesn't show up.
    after that, if i key arrow up or down, then the dot shows up.
  • tweets that are marked as a favorite aren't clear enough.... perhaps a better data template when an item is already a favorite…may use “gold”….
  • clicking on “toggle favorite” moves focus from list of tweets. should be more like a toolbar.
  • doing right arrow, arrow down to favorite, space, makes it a favorite, but then left doesn't work.
  • when i navigate to a person, ( to follow them), when i go back, i loose the place in the timeline.
Overall, I think it is an interesting start…
