2008: The State of the Web
• “People have no idea where they are, how to get to where they want
to be, or even what their options for travel might be…You might assume
that designers would be putting high effort into ensuring that their users
were given every possible cue as to form and function, but nothing could
be further from the truth. Instead, designers are creating invisible
buttons, checkboxes that look like radio buttons, jumps across the world
that are indistinguishable in appearance, but not behavior, from a jump
two paragraphs down the page…”

Myths: Myth #4
“I will say that most, if not all of your users will have no idea
whether your app was built in Flex, Silverlight, or AJAX, or
event [sic] know what those words mean. They will have an
experience with your application, and if its a bad experience,
regardless of how great the technology is, they won't come
back.”
