Don't Make Me Think | A Must Read

January 25, 2007

During the Christmas break, I decided to begin reading a couple of books that have been itching at me for quite some time. The first book that I decided to tackle was Steve Krug's, Don't Make Me Think. One of the best things about the book is that it practices what it preaches.

Don't Make Me Think is such a quick, easy read, that you can polish it off while on a short flight. Although most of what it covers is common sense, it is really nice to have it front of you in plain English.

I got the most out of the book from the following sections:

• Navigation
• Home Page Design
• Usability Testing
