What is Lorem Ipsum?
 

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularized in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Where does it come from?
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.


Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).



Where can I get some?
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.

Nice concept

Thats pretty cool, It kinda felt strange not clicking on anything on that site
I guess if it takes off the mouse will change and bang goes the ppc :winkwink:

:thumbsup:thumbsup:winkwink::winkwink::winkwink:

Very interesting concept ! Maybe the standard for Web 3.0 ? ;)

That site is just amazing...

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

it's just unnatural to not point anything with your finger either it's a mouse button, or a finger itself. But the concept looks interesting. Can be used by ppl with disabilities though.

that looks great !

heh, thats flash and nothing new

well flash is not new but this concept is.

Its just replacing the OnCLick with OnRollover. As an experiment it's interesting but beyond that it's pretty whatever... For really interesting interface interaction look up David Smalls and the work he does...

That could be interesting with unchecking crosssales...

lol good one.

Nice concept as an entertainment, but it won't work, as a professional interface designer I say:
- it's a step back, click gives you much more flexibility
- websites made without click (if there are many) will run out of interface ideas really soon because it's just going to be mouse over event everywhere and that significantly reduces the room for creativity
- even this example has one big mistake from the interface design standpoint, when you go over the submenu item it slides open, the rest of the items go way down to the bottom of the screen this is a big "no-no" because it frightens users as the menu essentially disappears
- what about drag-and-drop? how does that work in no-click environment?

feels kinda weird.. every fidget brings up a feature. i feel less control over the site this way.

Hmm pretty interesting, wouldn't want this to be the new standard though, which is probably wont be :)

:thumbsup:thumbsup

whats with you bumping 4 yr old threads today, bored ?:winkwink:

Made feel like i was missing something each time, like Wait, Fuck, I didnt mean it, get back.

It is a novelty.

I thought "Lorem ipsum" was either Latin Spam or just fill ...

Interesting background story.
