[CONCLUSION] IDEA BEHIND NEW INTERFACE

my new CNN interface allows user to

- Quickly identify what news or subjects are popular,
and important for you to know at the time.

- Actively participate and make everyday news
more useful for them to learn about the subjects or news
through sharing their resources.

- for companies or individuals who want to sell their
products and services, they effectively can approach to
specific audiences who might be interested in their products
by posing ads/resources to specific news or subject matters.

- Through mobile devices, to access to
the CNN news and CNN news-wikipedia anytime.



THE END

[DESIGN] MIDTERM REVIEW FOR CNN NEWS INTERFACE

here is my final for the mid-term project.
http://cc.usu.edu/~ryotaiizuka/cnn/ryota_final.swf


here is CNN news interface design for a mobile device











IDEA USING MOBILE PHONE

- For products such as toys, foods, etc, companies printed bar-codes on thier products' packages. Then, people will read the code by thier mobile phone to directly go to the resource pages on CNN NEWS-wikipedia. Users can learn more about the products and also can find more further resources about it.
