IMPROVING THE DIGITAL READING EXPERIENCE
Presenter By: Faisal Imran
Article By: OLIVER REICHENSTEIN
Improving the Digital Reading Experience
• The computer is an extension of our mind
• To design better software we need to build
interfaces as extensions of our mental
processes
• Building better reading interfaces requires
that we closely observe and rethink the way
we read
• While we need to find ways to navigate long
texts on tablets.
The humane function of computers
• The hammer is an extension of the hand
• Glasses are an extension of the eye
• the radio an extension of the ear
• As long as our tools are recognizable as
analogies of our body
Steve Jobs claimed the computer should be
“a bicycle for our mind.”
To design better software we need to build
programs as extensions of our mental
processes
Digital vs analog reading
Reading in a browser
• Online reading descend you multiple levels to
reach the text
• Number of frames of reference that you need to
enter
• reader gets constantly distracted by links, related
content, navigation, blinking elements, and
jumping icons in the dock
Digital vs analog reading
Reading a printed book
• Printed text is embedded in different invisible
frames
• Ways to embed text in a book
• dust jacket
• Back cover
• Table of contents
• Index
• Transitions between the different levels or frames
are clearly separated with empty pages
• Once you are in the text, you reach a state of
continuity
How to design better digital products
• To design a better reading experience, bring
digital reading into a form of continuity
Information Architecture
 Print and digital text neither share the same
mental model
 A printed text defines a pretty good spatial
landscape to remember where in the book you
read something
How to design better digital products
Information Architecture
Digital Text
• Easy to find a particular sentence
• How much time you spent with it, and how
much time is left
• Hard to remember text location
• Adapt to your personal needs and taste
How to design better digital products
Interaction Design
• Main interaction models for digital reading
are still flipping or scrolling
• Better navigation model for long texts
needed
How to design better digital products
Surface Design
• Type size, line height, leading, measure,
contrast, and even font choice are left to the
user
• Typographic algorithms can improve the
reading experience
• Instead of embedding 20 fonts in 20 sizes into
an e-book, one suitable font at one size for
each orientation is enough.

  1. This template can be used as a starter file for presenting training materials in a group setting. Sections Right-click on a slide to add sections. Sections can help to organize your slides or facilitate collaboration between multiple authors. Notes Use the Notes section for delivery notes or to provide additional details for the audience. View these notes in Presentation View during your presentation. Keep in mind the font size (important for accessibility, visibility, videotaping, and online production) Coordinated colors Pay particular attention to the graphs, charts, and text boxes. Consider that attendees will print in black and white or grayscale. Run a test print to make sure your colors work when printed in pure black and white and grayscale. Graphics, tables, and graphs Keep it simple: If possible, use consistent, non-distracting styles and colors. Label all graphs and tables.
  2. Give a brief overview of the presentation. Describe the major focus of the presentation and why it is important. Introduce each of the major topics.
