Imagining a Single-Browser Web

It is often said that competition brings out the best in all of us. Whether we’re running in a race or building software, knowing that others are out there doing the same thing pushes us to do more. It’s the place where progress and innovation come from.

However, a quick look at the web browser market these days will show one clear winner – with everyone else just hoping to make a dent.

As of this writing, Google’s Chrome browser holds over 64% of market share. From there, it’s Apple’s Safari a distant second (16%), along with Firefox (5%) and (gasp) Internet Explorer (4%). And with Microsoft’s Edge (under 2%) soon switching to the Chromium engine, Google is picking up even more steam.

Should these numbers continue to hold over the long term, it would seem that many of these competitors will become a footnote to history. Thus, Google’s supremacy will go pretty much unchallenged. So, what effect would that have on web designers?

Where Things Stand

Years ago, many were concerned that Microsoft would become the company who ruled all the web. Then, Firefox and Chrome came along and changed that narrative. Suddenly, we went from a browser (Internet Explorer) that had lacked support for some standards (not to mention championing its own proprietary code), to software that really did push the web towards standards compliance.

Both of those new browsers became the default for designers, enabling us to use the latest features. Power users were happy to have real choices that prioritized ease-of-use and speed over the slow, buggy IE.

But, the tables have turned dramatically. Microsoft is but a bit player in the browser market. Firefox has been innovative, but struggles as it does not have the monolithic reach of Google. Safari hangs on, mainly due to it being the default option for iPhone users. In fact, Safari has about 26% of the market on mobile, while running on just under 4% of desktops.

Those numbers are in line with the mobile OS market, as iOS retains about 28% of users, while Android (on which Chrome is usually the default browser) takes a whopping 70%.

This tells us that mobile users tend to stick with their default option. And, if you don’t have a widely-used mobile OS of your own (which Microsoft and Firefox’s Mozilla don’t), you’re going to be seriously behind the top dogs.

One Company Sets the Agenda

It’s no secret that, increasingly, Google sets the direction of the web. We’ve seen this for years with search, but the dominance of Chrome allows it to further its interests even more.

This isn’t to suggest that Chrome is any way a bad product, or that Google hasn’t done some very positive things. But, just as the aforementioned concerns with Microsoft, having one company essentially in charge of where web browsers are headed isn’t ideal. Not for a truly “open” web.

And, much like Microsoft tried to do with IE (and was later in trouble with the US government for), Google (and to a lesser extent, Apple) have tied in the browser with an OS. Sure, you do have the option to install something else. However, this *could* allow for some anti-competitive practices to come out.

Beyond that, for web designers this one-way street means that we have to build sites in a way that pleases a single entity (not that we don’t already) and must change directions as we’re told (again, we’re kind of already there). When one company is the far-and-away leader, they dictate and we listen.

Sure, It’s Easier – But…

On the bright side, we could view this as having only one piece of software to seriously worry about. To many designers, this might be less stressful than having to deal with a half-dozen browsers, each with their own bugs and quirks.

Just think of the time we could save on browser testing. We could say, “Hey, it works on Chrome – good enough for me!” And this would also enable us to implement cutting-edge features like CSS Grid, without having to deal with fallbacks for older browsers. Good deal, right?

Well, it could be a good deal, so long as the market leader decides to play along. What if, for instance, they really don’t want to support a new HTML or CSS standard? What if they have a falling out with a CMS such as WordPress and, all of the sudden, sites built with it don’t run so well?

Maybe these are far-fetched scenarios. Still, they’re not impossible. All of it really depends on the good behavior of that entity. While it would certainly benefit a company like Google to show restraint, there is always that chance of a company taking things a little too far.

The question is: If they do go too far, will users run the other way towards another browser? And, will there even be a viable alternative for them to run to?

Are We Already There?

Statistically speaking, Chrome is undoubtedly dominating the market. And with Google already so much a part of our daily lives (and livelihoods), it would be difficult not to feel the sway of their every decision. For all intents and purposes, it sure does feel like a single-browser universe.

Yet, there is also some reason to think that another “browser war” could be on the horizon. The latest versions of Firefox, while still low on market share, are a highly-competitive product. If it retains quality, there is a chance for growth. And, as long as Apple retains a major slice of mobile users, Safari isn’t going away.

Then there is the possibility of regulation. Google is under the wary eye of many a legislative body, and policy changes could have a profound impact the future of its products.

Last but not least, there is the fickle nature of consumers. Virtually nothing stays on top forever, and people are quick to move to something they like better. If Chrome (or Android) stagnates, a significant number of users could look elsewhere.

And perhaps that’s the bottom line. Use the product you like, whether or not it came with your device. The web may just depend on it.

Large Cursors: Pointing the Way Towards a Better Web

Various experiments are conducted these days with mouse pointers. Consider our recent posts regarding cursor effects and the use of circular cursors in web design. It feels like we are obsessed with this tiny device that indicates our movement across the computer screen. Without a doubt, there is a fixation on this subject.

There are many exciting solutions in the wild, yet most of them are just decorative extravaganzas whose aim is to impress. But what about making the web a better place? There is one small solution in this area that is intended to enhance the user experience, rather than contributing to the entertaining side of the project. Let’s consider it closely.

Bigger Cursor – Better UX

Two important things make this trend relevant.

First of all, in most cases, these developers have ditched the trivial arrow in favor of a circle. There is an inevitable shift of preferences towards round shaped mouse cursors, so there are no surprises here.

And the second thing is regarding the mouse behavior itself. Like all great ideas, this one is simple. When the cursor gets into key areas such as the logo, links, social media icons, navigation, etc. it becomes more prominent in order to highlight their importance. It can change size, color or transparency.

The solution benefits an interface in various ways, for example:

• It makes things a bit more interesting;
• It saves the interface from being mundane;
• It improves user interactions;
• It makes the exploration of a website more intuitive than usual.

In essence, this is nothing new. We are accustomed to employing hover effects to make the tiny details of a website such as navigation links or buttons prominent upon interaction.

However, the artists below have gone a little bit further and forced the cursor to enhance the interaction from another side. The idea is brilliant. Let’s consider these fantastic examples.

Everest Agency

Consider Everest Agency as a representative example of the trend.

It is a typical website of the present-day. Built with the help of the latest technologies, it looks sophisticated and elegant. There is a small, intricate slider that produces a favorable impression. The website is packed with stylish features.

As for the mouse cursor, it is a regular arrow pointer – with a twist. It’s outlined by a simple circle. When the cursor hits an area of the menu, the round-shaped tail grows in size and brings the element into the spotlight. Here, the solution feels at home.

Media Tree

Media Tree boasts truly clean and modest aesthetics. The landing page feels fresh, crisp and incredibly airy. The solid mid-sized red circle that plays the role of the mouse cursor falls into the natural focus here. It effects not just the navigational elements of the website but also the content. What’s more, it is even supplied with tiny hints that show users what they need to do in order to see more. In such a minimalist environment, these playfully dished-up clarifications are just what the doctor ordered.

Happy Online

Happy Online gets its beauty from a geometric appeal. A bunch of colorful, relatively big triangles enriches the design. There are many boxes and stripes. Here, the cursor with a circular trail perfectly blends in. Each link gets an extra dose of attention upon hover. Simple, elegant and helpful.

Uptec

Much like in the previous example, the use of a circular cursor with extra functionality is entirely logical for Uptec. Note the huge hollow circles that are scattered throughout the hero area. They save the welcome section from looking boring.

There are also vertical lines and hollow typography. Here, the round cursor is well-suited to the entourage. The team has also added a pulsating effect to make it look like a small tracking device that you can quickly find whenever you need to. When it hovers over the logo, links, language switchers and images it changes its size, transparency and behavior – indicating that something interesting is hidden inside.

De Jongens van Boven

While in the previous examples the trend feels like a pleasant bonus, in the case of De Jongens van Boven it is a necessity. The website has a visually-heavy hero area with lots of layers, geometric details, and decorative effects. So, the vibrant pointer of a relatively large size that you can easily track is a must-have.

Here, you can see a mouse cursor that is a combination of two circles. The first one is small and solid, whereas the second one is big and semi-transparent. It highlights the navigational components by changing its size. It also changes color according to the slide, reinforcing the consistency of the design.

Wewo

Much like the previous example, Wewo also has a complex hero area. Although there are no bizarre animations, the extra layers are more than enough to make tracking your movement a bit challenging. So, the solution perfectly suits.

Note two things: The first is that the team uses various sizes of the cursor to pinpoint the essential areas. And second, an infra-ray effect that enriches interaction and makes it playful.

Dominic Berzins

If you feel like a small circle won’t make any difference in your website, you can always go for extreme measures by enlarging it a hundred times and forcing it to leave an attention-grabbing trail. Dominic Berzins shows this in his outstanding personal portfolio.

The aesthetic of his website is marked by minimalism, and you certainly do not need extra help for highlighting the important details. Nevertheless, the artist decided to make the cursor an eye-catcher.

Some may consider it as a too-much. However, not only does it fit like a glove here, contributing to the overall theme, but it also serves as a “wow” factor. That is to say nothing about literally drawing the track of your movement. Clever.

Going Bigger and Bolder

This trend is both exciting and promising. Its key feature lies in the fact that it is practical, and at the same time entertaining. And it certainly benefits user experience.

I can’t say that the mouse cursor is an irreplaceable thing, since recent studies show that more and more people browse the internet via cellphones and tablets. However, no matter what, there will be a category of people who will prefer the old-school PC or notebook. Therefore, it will always have its own place under the sun.

Tell us, what do you think about the use of large cursors? Do you find it amusing? Helpful? Or just useless?
