Bruce Horn GUI Interview

Wednesday, April 28, 2004 by dendillon | Discussion: WinCustomize News

An interesting read found at MacThemes.net: "In 1984, Apple debuted the Macintosh: a personal computer that took a radical leap in the user experience, and brought it to the masses. And behind the computer was the team, which included a young programmer, Bruce Horn. Fresh from the groundbreaking labs at Xerox PARC, Bruce worked on the Finder, an application and concept that in some form or another, is universally used by computer users today.

Now, soon after the Macintosh's 20th anniversary, Dr. Horn joins us to revisit his experience as a collaborator in one of the greatest technological projects in history, discuss what he has done since then, and what he has planned for the future."

Now that was an interesting read, and there was a reference to the original icon designer for Apple (Susan Kare) in the comments section which I googled and that led me off on another interesting read.
