Some very salient points made about flow and immersion. In some ways I like the idea that you can interact with a piece of content and explore it. But, I think your point is correct around forcing the user to interact and interrupting the narrative. Some of the art around storytelling is in the editing process and in the telling of the tale. Forcing the user to make too many decisions may detract from the story and distrub the state of flow a user gets in when passively enjoying a good movie or book for instance. But, I do like that if you are time poor, you can enjoy self-contained vignettes without having to commit to a full length film. Look forward to reading more posts!

On the plus side, no more dramas designing on Mac for Windows clients! Yep, colours tend to look a bit darker shifting from 1.8 to 2.2, unless you’re using colour management tools.

Does this mean that colours will look darker? I noticed a subtle but noticeable change when I installed SL but was wondering if I was going crazy. Love the site btw. Awse! Hello Si!
