11070Java Auto-Completing Combobox Applethttp://www.somacon.com/p51.phpThis type of interface provides a huge usability improvement over the alternatives. In fact, when you call 411, the operators use exactly this type of interface to quickly lookup a phone number based on the name of the entity you specify. The alternatives are dropdown boxes, which require painful scrolling, and multi-page narrowing of categories, which requires reading many options and multiple page requests. Imagine how long a directory assistance call would take if the 411 operators used those! Some example of where to use this type of interface would for eBay's category selection, or Yahoo Auto's automobile make and model selection. Alas, they do not use this technique yet.Java > Applets > MiscellaneousOct 11, 2006Shailesh N. Humbad

There's nothing worse than an in-box full of spam, is there? If you display an e-mail address on your site, the spammers use their automatic spam bots to search through your pages, 'harvesting' your e-mail address.
Abstract offers a truly simple solution to this problem. Instead of displaying your e-mail address in text (which the spam bots can easily read) it draws your address as an image on the page. It looks like text to you or me but the spam bots just can't read it!
Behind the scenes, you configure Abstract with a specially formatted e-mail address. This format is easy for you or me to read, but a spam bot simply doesn't have the capability to understand it.
