From the Shameless Self-Promotion Dept.
Join me at Wentworth by the Sea for the Vermont / New Hampshire Direct Marketing Group’s 19th annual conference where I’ll be presenting, Get the “F” Out of Your Web Site.
“F”-patterns. “C”-menus. The “three-click” rule. The “8-second” rule. You’ve probably heard every one of these offered as Usability Gospel. Sure, each has its roots in serious research (conducted by very serious people.) But each is nothing more than a general guideline — a rule of thumb — and more than one of these legendary laws of usability may lead your customer experience efforts dangerously astray.
Learn which rules to follow, which to ignore - and which to break! - in this lively deconstruction of web site usability and myth-information.
The VTNHDMG is a well-regarded and long established regional affair for catalog marketing and web customer experience types… and despite that, they still invited me to present. Should be fun!

Hello.
Bloggle is the online playground of Doug Cadmus, a usability guy, writer, photographer and sometime dramatist who moved to Vermont for the coffee. When not writing, reading or walking his old, blind golden retriever, he roasts coffee in his garage and is the Web Guy for Green Mountain Coffee in Waterbury, VT. Flickr Photos
