Improving the current layout
What's wrong about the current maemo.org layout?
List issues here:
- Navigation is a little hard to...navigate.
- Certain user-centered items should be prevalent and easy to use (e.g., Downloads, News, Documentation).
- Downloads page(s) could be better organized (takes notes from user-centered software sites like VersionTracker.com, or even something completely non-software-related).
- A lot of the subnav stuff (Roadmap, Lists, Bugzilla, SDK, IRC, etc.) could be removed from the main page and placed in a Developer-centric page.
- Certain user-centered items should be prevalent and easy to use (e.g., Downloads, News, Documentation).
- As discussed here, should the main page be more of an aggregated community-driven content portal?
- Many graphical elements are blurry. Is this a post-process issue, or is it inherent in the original artwork?
What works about the current maemo.org layout?
List positive remarks here:
- Main page News summaries are good.
- The idea of posting "The Pearl" is good. Should it just be called "maemo.org Download Picks" (or something)?
Proposals for creating a great maemo.org layout.
List proposals here:
- Rethink focus of maemo.org as a whole: Are Tablets for coders or regular users? (I think the latter.)
- Why not wikify the entire site? Midgard is great software, but going completely wiki would speak well of "openness."
- New color in new maemo.org logo should be used.
- Make it a fluid layout.
- Make it more ajaxy. Use jQuery or Prototype to create a clean, (or something) snappy UX.
