Description

Human Computing is a privately held software development and consulting firm located in San Jose, California. It was established in 1991 by human interface designer Peter Bickford, a nine-year veteran of Apple Computer where he served as Senior Scientist for Human Interface, and aided in the design of over three hundred Apple and third-party products. Bickford is the author of over fifty articles on Human Interface for Apple s developer newsletter Apple Directions, and is the the author of the book, Human Interface Design (Addison-Wesley, 1997). Human Computing is dedicated to two goals: making it easier for people to use computer technology to get things done, and making computers themselves more fun. We achieve the first goal through our human interface and software consultancy services. Our clients have included IBM, Cisco Systems, Nortel Networks, Case, Pioneer Hybrid, and numerous web companies. Our projects have ranged from interface reviews of client-server systems to multimedia programming and design. In 1992, we began work on what has become our flagship software product, ComicBase. Originally designed as a multimedia-oriented database for comic collectors, it has grown into the premier reference and inventory program for Macintosh and Windows personal computers. ComicBase now includes art and descriptions for over 20,000 comic titles and over 320,000 individual comics, plus current values and historical values of individual comics and more are being added...
