RIA User Interfaces, how much space do you waste?Sep 08, 2007 at 5:51 AM 0
The Story (Context)I used to work for a Rail company, and outside my office was the main concourse for our "Central" station. On this platform was a coffee shop, which basically takes up around 10m x 6m of real-estate right next to the exit gates (i.e. its half-inside…
