I was at a conference once, (either SxSW or Adaptive Path's UX Week), and
someone was speaking about banner ads, and how we only see them in our
peripheral vision, which makes us nervous because our "old brain" knows that
shadows moving in the corner might well be a tiger, and we should be on
alert.
Does any of this sound familiar? I'm very interested in how psychology plays
a role in web design, but so far I haven't found any resources on the topic.
Is there anything you can recommend?
