Designing for Sustainability : A Guide to Building Greener Digital Products and Services PDF
by Tim Frick
Description
Pixels use electricity, and a lot of it. If the Internet were a country, it would be the sixth largest in terms of electricity use. Thats because todays average web page has surpassed two megabytes in size, leading to slow load times, frustrated users, and a lot of wasted energy. With this practical guide, your web design team will learn how to apply sustainability principles for creating speedy, user-friendly, and energy-efficient digital products and services.
Author Tim Frick introduces a web design framework that focuses on four key areas where these principles can make a difference: content strategy, performance optimization, design and user experience, and green hosting.
