Product Description

End user programming (EUP) is nothing short of a revolution in the way people use computers. EUP tools enable all computer users to customize and automate their use of the web without learning any code. The flexibility and interactivity inherent in Web 2.0, open source, and social networking make EUP possible for the masses, and this area is now exploding. It only continues to grow as users grow less patient with the limits of the Web, grow more computer savvy, and become more comfortable connecting with people around the world and sharing data with them.

EUP tools are being conceptualized, developed, tested, and implemented by HCI research labs at major academic institutions (MIT, Stanford) and corporations (Adobe, Intel, IBM) - EUP research and development requires an understanding of user needs, web usage patterns, navigation style, and usability to create desirable programs. Without HCI, the products would be as confusing as the code itself.

Research findings and beta systems (many now available on the mass market) have emerged from the labs and are ready for primetime. HCI developers, researchers, practitioners, and students are clamoring for reliable information.

End User Programming for the Web takes cutting edge material from industry leaders and presents it in an accessible manner, including information on the systems, features and benefits, implementation, impact, and lessons learned. The book's editors (with a team including a EUP government backed consortium members and the co-creator of Adobe's Zoetrope) provide the book's framework - introducing each section, providing context a context and significance within the field, and ending each chapter with summary page, which compares systems to each other, specifies the system's target audience and intended use, and shows how the system deals with fundamental challenges in EUP.

*Presenting the first book on creating end user programming (EUP) tools since Web 2.0, open source, and social networking made it possible

*Featuring contributions from the creators of Adobe's Zoetrope and Intel's Mash Maker (as featured in The New York Times, CNET, Business Week, and BBC)

*Provides cutting examples of research, development, implementation, and testing of EUP tools, complete with video demos of each system on a companion website
