There’s a certain feeling I get when an idea really gels; you know what I’m talking about. Iteration after iteration, hours, weeks, even months of energy put into the smallest interaction victory - all so that your users will be delighted by their experience. And when they do experience that delight, it rocks!
Well, for concepts and prototypes, I’ve begun using the Rock cursor as inspiration to acheive greatness. I’m in this to create products that rock, and thought it would be a nice Friday afternoon gesture to share this icon with the wonderful the Push Button For readers.
I wish I could claim that I created the icon, but I didn’t; I only tweaked it and made it better. In fact I have no idea who originally thought of the idea. But damn if it doesn’t look good when I’m presenting an idea that is air tight! Take it, use it, and my friends, let’s spread the rock!
Awesome! This has me wondering: why isn’t this icon in every instant messenger app out there?!!!
