We could all benefit from looking around our sites for elements that distract from usability.</p>Aaron TraffasTue, 28 Jul 2009 08:21:56 -0000http://www.auctioneertech.com/2009/the-end-of-the-faq/#comment-13271868<p>Good post. I have rarely found FAQs to be beneficial as a user; however, good design with a focus on the user interface most certainly is beneficial.</p><p>Most of us try to cram too much information on a page, in order to not use a FAQ. However, much of information could be eliminated, if the UI is good.</p><p>I look at my own website, and I see 25-30 things that add nothing to usability, and if anything distract from the content, which would be more usable if those things were not there.</p><p>I can think of a vendor or two that might incorporate this as well. It would make my life easier.</p>brandonhoweFri, 24 Jul 2009 10:32:03 -0000
