Shallow features

  • Main Page:
    • Most of the tiles link to a dummy page that only contains basic layout and no real functionality because they are not in the core scenario.
    • The functionality to customize tiles does not exist.
    • User log in and log out are not implemented.
    • Icons are not finalized because we are using canned interests.
  • Video Connect Page:
    • Fake friends and no video chat back-end implemented.
    • Add friend button's back-end is not implemented, so clicking on it will immediately show that the other user is your friend.
  • Health Page:
    • This category is canned.
    • Does not allow user to post questions but does allow the user to answer existing questions.
    • "Go Back to Page" button and "Go to Page" work, but the content isn't updated.
    • The questions are sorted by their 'answered?' status.
    • Answers to questions will disappear upon refresh.
  • No labels

    I think most of the problems are learnability problems (def. severe for old people).

    a good thing to do is think about:

    a) what this page is about

    b) how to best inform the user what this page is about
