It’s All About the View

It’s not like we’re shallow – but this week is all about eye candy. A vanity post, if you will.

Last week we told you about the new banners on brand pages, controlled by the page admins. No sooner did we release this capability, than the admins started to go wild with it. Check it out and click on the images to see the brand pages themselves:

Lego Star Wars

 

HBO SopranosHoly brand, Batman

 

That’s not all, in the looks department. We streamlined the site, going for elegance and panache. The search box is leaner and lovelier, and the status box is flatter and better looking. Plus, you can now share a product directly from it!

 

Interested in anything else?

Two other major improvements combine better looks with better functionality. Click on a product you like, or own, or think about owning. The product page now has recommendations for other products you may be interested in, related of course to the one you’re browsing. Relevant, smart and adds color to the page.

Also, the quick view layer is now present in even more areas of the site, enabling you to interact with the product of your choice without too many clicks. Comfort and style folks. That’s us.

The Mobile Way

And on the mobile front: if you’re a Shop Your Way Rewards member – rejoice! From now on you can carry your member card in your iPhone. It’s just permanently there. Pick some items, show your mobile to the associate when you pay – and get some points. Nice and easy.

Pizzability at Delver (Pizza + Usability Testing)

Sunday, January 30th, 2011

(This is my first post at Delver’s blog, how exciting! My name is Oren Ellenbogen and I lead the development team responsible for delver.com)

We just had our 1st Pizzability at Delver.

There were 25 of us, from the Development, QA, HR, Project Management and even Marketing groups. We basically ate pizza and saw a few usability study videos of real users at Delver.  The goal was to have fun and allow people to sit back and relax (between each bite) while watching how people are using our product. This, I hope, will help connect even further “the makers of Delver” to our users. Bon appetit!
