On this page I'm writing down my thoughts about my graduation from the last two weeks. They are an attempt to get at a better user experience ;)

Critique

There were some doubts in the teachers team about the project. I'll quickly summarise what I got from their critiques:

  • It's doubtful whether Cookie Monster and Miss Piggy are the right characters
  • The project should stir up a strong emotion like a shock about what the browser is doing
  • The project should stay closer to reality and reveal which scripts are at work
  • There is a danger that I'm pointing my finger at the user saying: "bad user!"

Google language

In the extension of staying closer to reality I tried to construct my characters from language only found at Google privacy pages, terms of services and the language they use in their services. This resulted in the following text:
