I'd like to understand this more. Other than resizing a browser window and
zooming the text what *else* do users do? I'll also go back to my previous
email and call the distinction between a web document and
'something-higher-level-that's-not-a-doc'. If you're viewing a full screen
canvas animation, what can the user do to 'adapt it'?
My claim is that that vast majority of 'adaption' that we see on the web is
applied to flowed text. I agree with this and agree this is an awesome part
of the web. However, what does it mean to carry this ability into
non-documents? My concern is that we are using yesterdays tasks to define
tomorrows features.
