Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability (2nd Edition)
Recently, I started into a great, handy, and very attractive book called Don't Make Me Think. It's an easy-to-follow guide to creating usable interfaces on the web.
Ok, I have to admit. I say "recently," but really, the attractiveness of the book caught my eye while at FlashForward2006 a few months ago. I haven't even finished reading the book... It's not tough to follow at all, but with all that it covers, one thing it doesn't do is create pockets of reading time and bark at me to return to it when time does present itself.

workshop notes
Coincidentally, before seeing your post about the book, a friend had just sent me a link to someone's notes from Steve Krug's workshop. They're not as comprehensive as the book, but they offer a good overview/refresher of the material.
p.s. - Your WYSIWYG editor for comments is using gray text on a navy blue background, making it a bit hard to read/edit.
agreed wysiwyg is hard to read
My apologies about the blue on grey.. I tossed together this theme in short order for the public and overlooked the editor's colors-- and have been kicking myself every time I make my own posts :)
Thanks for the post and motivation-- I'll take care of it ... one day..
tinyMCE editor background takes on
Thanks again for the reminder to look into this. Turns out that TinyMCE rtf editor for Drupal inherits the site's body css background definitions, b/c it is itself an iframe and therefore complete html document. However, it does expose it's own .mceContentBody class on the body tag, so I was able to add this to the stylesheet:
body.mceContentBody { background: #d1d1ff url(); }It's not tough to follow at

So here I am, pushing against deadlines, pushing to staging, preparing to push this ginormous update to a production, and I notice that my roles are no longer being honored at staging in this View! *yikes* I'm going to propose using hook_perm to define some appropriate role permissions instead of "multiple roles" under Views Access. Here's to innovation, let me know what you think. 70-290 | JN0-660 | HP2-Z16 | 70-685 | 642-642 | 642-457 | HP2-E38 | 000-106 |
