On evolution of icons in graphical interfaces

favourite 1 person
icon design, article suggested by conan on 25-Mar-2009
"The article describes the background and the detailed history of computer icons featured in graphical interfaces ??? complete with visual examples and short descriptions of 21 interfaces (from 1981???s Xerox Star to upcoming BeOS Zeta). There is also a breakdown of various icon properties (such as size, style or number of colours). The article ends with a quick glimpse into the future and a conclusion that the icons are not necessarily evolving into the most desirable direction, focusing more on the visuals than the functionality."
