Well, I’m on the last chapter of a very great book. Don’t Make Me Think by Steve Krug: A common sense approach to web usability. This book is thin, but completely full of good information. It kept me hanging on every word. I am currently reading 4 books consecutively so I will review those as well. This book has been great. It’s approach is quite simple. DON’T MAKE YOUR USERS THINK! Don’t Make Me Think discusses how even make your users think for a fraction of a second will add to the frustration total and make them leave your site. Some areas of interest are:
- User patterns
- Designing for scanning
- Wise use of copy
- Navigation design
- Home page layout
- Usability testing
