Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Google+ Re-design and WhiteSpace Rant!”.
Hey, what’s up, I’m gon na start off this video by saying this hi. My name is marques and I’m on Google, and that link is down in the description and you can circle me there. It’S an awesome social network so as you’ve probably seen by now, Google has rolled out a major UI, refresh or redesigned for the new Google Plus well, a lot of people kind of tend to reject change. A lot of people actually really like this update. It’S turned into more of a column to view the way a lot of more useful sites tend to be over.
On the left hand, side are some neat looking icons right down. The middle is a pretty sweet, general timeline. Look at what you’re, following and the posts of the people who you’re looking at everything, looks really clean. There’S that chat bottom down at the bottom right-hand side kind of looks like a Facebook feature.
But honestly, if you use chat a lot, this could be a really useful feature for you. But it’s overall, like I said, a very clean overview, a very, very clean redesign and I really like it and then there’s this one feature that people seem to be having a ball with and that’s the gigantic white space right in the middle website. Okay, not in the middle, a little bit to the right-hand side turns out. This is a feature you can get pretty creative with it.
Let’S look at some uses for that white space. You can use it for stickies or post-it notes. You can use it for other mini notes like TextEdit. You can use it for a little mini Facebook window or you can use it to keep your house green or you can use it to brace yourself or even the dreaded Clippy thing that we all hate from Microsoft Office. You can use it as Vanna White or a Betty White space, or you can use it for another Google Plus window mind-blown. I think it’s pretty funny that people have found great ways to use this thing. You probably have too, and you can leave those in the comment below. But honestly I didn’t really notice this for a while, because I don’t use my browser maximized.
So I didn’t even really notice. There was a white space until I saw screenshots of it, and I was told to maximize my browser. In fact, plenty of websites have a white space issue when you run them in a full maximized web browser on a high resolution screen like Facebook or my. What’S a call, but honestly guys, I’m a really big fan of the Google redesign.
I’Ve spent some time on my cover photo, which is also kind of a Facebook feature, but I think it fits in really nicely so. You can check out my profile down on the link below how I have personalized it, and you can check out some awesome uses for the white space also in the links below thanks for watching this video and I’ll talk to you guys in the next one ace. It’S gon na be ad space in like six months. I give it six months.
