My favourite books are shown below: General business books Strategy/Competitive Advantage books E-Commerce books General interest books My favourite books: The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People - Steven R. Covey If you are looking to get more out of life then this makes an excellent read. It covers many topics, from business related issues, to marriage, children and personal private victories. First published in 1990 is has remained as one of the most popular books in personal change around the world. It takes you through the seven steps to organising and getting more fulfilment from your life. With ideas that make sense the book demonstrates "simplicity without being simple". I was hooked from the moment I picked it up. Give it a go, its a small price to pay for a book that can help you realise your potential.

One bad customer experience can cause a customer to abandon a site permanently and result in bad publicity Keep developers focused on important business metrics , such as: conversion rates; revenue per order; acquisition cost per new customer; % repeat buyers; % revenue from repeat buyers; abandoned shopping carts. Lower your support costs . Customers won't need to phone up to check their order went through. Help you keep focused on tasks customers want to achieve, rather than on the web as a technology tool Improve customer satisfaction and show customers you are responsive to their needs Show where you're wasting development time and guide your next moves Practical tips If the VCs are baying for your blood, here are some practical ideas for things you can do now: Identify all the stakeholders of the system "Something for everybody = Everything for nobody"

[PREVIOUS] [NEXT] [TOC] Usability Engineering for the Web Keith Instone Abstract As ease of use becomes more important than being "cool" on the World Wide Web, usability engineering techniques will let developers create more usable Web sites by helping them know their audience, valuating their user interfaces, and redesigning their sites based on user feedback. Understanding the tradeoffs between standards and new Web technologies is essential in creating usable sites. Introduction The ability to be "cool" on the World Wide Web that is, taking advantage of the latest and greatest featureshas been an important factor for those who want to stand out from the crowd. Lately, however, users have made it clear that it's not enough to simply use the newest technologies, such as frames, JavaScript, animated GIFs, or Shockwave. Many sites have been forced to provide alternatives to their frame designs because visitors have found them too hard to use [1]. Usability engineering techniques can create more usable Web sites by helping developers focus on the users rather than the technology. Understanding users' needs and the tasks they are trying to accomplish is steadily becoming more important than adopting the latest whiz-bang feature. Of course, if the latest technology fulfills a need, it should be used; but incorporating this technology just to be cool is becoming less and less acceptable. In the very competitive world of the Web, usability will become crucial to the survival of sites (and their corresponding businesses). The value of usability engineering was put in perspective when Robert Hertzberg

Web Publishing Help Usability Creating Documents Publishing to Showme Publishing to the Mulibraries Web Server Usability Before you publish your pages, you might want to think about a few usability issues. There are a few things you can do (or not do) to make sure your pages are easy for everyone to use. Always, always, always remember the #1 most important rule of web publishing. Content is King Users come to your site because of your content. They come to get information. If they don't get it, they leave. It is that simple. Don't be deceived about what you need to have on your site for it to be successful. You don't need flashy graphics, fancy layouts, animations, multimedia, and you don't need to be an HTML expert (or really even know much HTML at all) etc... You just need good content. It is generally good practice to put your email address (or a departmental email address) at the bottom of the page. This way, if someone has a question or comment about your pages, they have an unambigous contact person. It is also nice if you wrap the email address in an anchor tag. Like this: Please don't just make your name a link, like the page at

The students were split into two groups, one focusing on academic uses of web publishing and the other group looking at recreational uses of web publishing. In the first group, the students were given a list of "reasons for publishing academic related entries" and asked to assess which they thought were a good idea, and which they would do. They were also asked to consider who should be able to access them and comment on them. The results are shown in the following image: In the second group, the students were given a list of "reasons for publishing recreational related entries" and asked to assess them in the same way: The students in both groups were then given a list of "types or formats of entry" and asked to assess them:

The best way I've found to "uninstall" Flash (for Internet Explorer users) is to download a wonderful utility called AdShield (available for free at adshield.org ) and add ".swf" to the program's block list. .swf is the file extension for most Flash content on the Web. If there is a cartoon or some other Flash content you'd like to see, removing .swf from the block list is easy. The program also does an excellent job of blocking those hugely annoying pop-ups and pop-unders. Installing AdShield will greatly improve your web browsing experience. Macromedia says Flash is "the solution for producing and delivering high-impact web sites." It's also a solution for making your site
