R.I.P. WYSIWYG - Results-Oriented UI Coming (Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox)

Interesting article from Nielsen about UI design becoming more goal orientated rather than the actions needed to get there. Which makes sense when you think about it inline with usabilitiy design.

Currently I think you get some of the most interesting interfaces in creative products such as Painter or Poser. Which take a bit of getting used to as they are not what we are used to, but are easier to learn and much more effective thereafter.
