Abstract :
The limits of personal digital assistants (PDAs) encourage information crowding and challenge users´ searching skills. Findings are reported from a study of eye movement data from nine users tasked with searching for information on graphical user interface screens, Web pages, and similar screen images. Images varied in information density, color highlighting, and sequence of presentation.
