Middle Aged, Cranky, and Loving Web Usability
I love the work of usability expert Jakob Nielson. I really do.
His latest UseIt Alerts are must-reads.
One alert takes a cranky old man’s slap at bad web design. Bad content, bad navigation, big bad badness.
Another discusses middle-aged folks and our declining web performance.
Both contain awesome analyses. Couldn’t agree more.
But keep two things in mind:
1. Criticizing is always easier than creating. Spotting bad design is easy. Creating great design (or content or navigation or anything, for that matter) is tougher. (And more rewarding.)
2. I’m middle-aged. I know how fun it can be to criticize the work of others. Especially whippersnappers.
So please do enjoy and appreciate Mr. N’s work — and his unique style of presenting it!
