Browsing and Object Orientation, what am I talking about ?
Until now browsing is considered to be time wasting activity most of the
time and that is because of the nature of the browsers.
NotJustBrowsing has an element of thought provoking usefulness that makes
the time wasting browsing process in to a meaningful activity of immense
educational value.
There are three elements of design in this software, they all coincide with
the objectives of daily processes.
Browsing Space: This is the outer world of information and
the user browse in this space to collect pieces of information that
the users need.
Study Place: This is the place where a user keeps
himself engaged in creative activities. Studying existing material or
re-producing new material from existing material or searching for some material
from the Browsing Space.
Shelf: Collected material including books, music and
others reside in the shelf ready to be picked up. Newly created material in
Study Place is binded togather and placed in the shelf for future
reference. Shelf items can be borrowed (imported) or lended (exported). The good
thing is that only a copy will be exchanged in this process along with notes,
description etc.
