11 years ago WHO/WHY:
- We need an interface for shelby on a tv.
- We think that usage patterns on a tv will be different on the web.
- The design of the tv experience should feel comfortable for somewhat technologically inclined people that already know how to load a browser on a tv (via boxee, xbox, or connecting a computer to a tv).
- These people are very comfortable with a TV remote control and relaly just want cool web content on their big screen.
- We should spread the message of the new interface in forums/communities where people are looking for apps on tv (boxee or xbox forums, hackernews (?), other?)
- Other ways to spread word of HTML5 tv app? (more research needed)
- GOAL: 20 MIN TIME IN APP AVG
WHAT/HOW:
- Navigation based on 5 button remote
- Simplest interface at first
- Based on simplest tv model (at first), up/down change channel, left/right moves through videos in channel
- Make Shelby on TV feel as much like "watching tv" as possible (vs watching web video on tv)
- mockups forthcoming
