Don’t make me think

July 6, 2007 | Written by

I don’t like to think, or read. I mean I think and read all the time, but when I am online I don’t want to have to think about using a website or read any instructions.

I want things to seem intuitive on the web. I want each website to function like other websites, and maybe not exactly the same way but similar.

It’s like credit card terminals. Just about any chain store has them. But they are different everywhere. I inevitably have to do a reswipe 1 out of 4 times I make a purchase. I just want one standard way to charge things. I want “Cash Back?” to come at the same place every time. Stop making a fool of me Baldacci’s!

We are always looking to find an innovative, forward thinking, ahead of the curb new trend for “web 2.0″ but I think I would just prefer my user experience to be easy and quick. K.I.S.S. –Keep It Simple Stupid.

Sometimes I want some bells and whistles but I also want to know how to navigate through them easily too…with minimal effort on my part. Make that happen for me, please.

Wow, you’re just like Nielsen Norman with his “Web 2.0 ‘neglecting good design’”: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6653119.stm

Sounds like you need to move to a communist country.

Nice blog. Zero comments — real bloglike. What does it take to get approved? Why can’t you guys be more open?

Apart from not posting comments to your blogs, this posting is despicable because it goes against the foundation of American society — independence, individuality, and responsibility. Also goes against the spirit of the blogosphere — thoughtful back-and-forth discussion that involves taking risks and trying hard to be authoritative and make your own way.

Laaaame.
