Summary: Absolutely Required Reading
Comment: This book's content is vital! Every web developer, aspiring or experienced, should read "Don't Make Me Think!" Not only does it give real-world examples of good practice, it conveys the user-centered mindset that should be behind web development. And if nothing else, when your boss wants something bossish on the website ("Make them fill in these 42 fields to subscribe to our newsletter!"), you can say, "Well, a leading usability expert specifically recommends against doing so, and here's why..."

The presentation is every bit as good as the content. Smart humor, a casual writing style, and solid illustrations make this downright entertaining to read. (All-in-all, it's like Edward Tufte meets The Simpsons!)

Summary: Essential for any Marketing person on the planet!
Comment: This book is essential for anyone who is redesigning or designing their website ...
It is not laborious to read and each and every page has useful information ...
Lots of pictures and illustrations for "visual" people - as are most designers and it really goes into the "surfer" mentality.

Summary: Write this on your forehead (unless you read this book)
Comment: Keep it simple stupid.

Write that on your forehead before you even THINK about designing a site (and keep a mirror on your monitor to remind you). This book shows you what you need to build great looking, functional websites.

Read this book and only then can you stop writing on your forehead.

Summary: Web Manager's Tool
Comment: This book helped others involvement in the development process understand why the website is being designed/created the way it is. My content providers and vendors now understand the big picture much better, which makes the development and maintenance process easier for everyone. One chapter covers the idea of the way people think and the concept "religious debates," where really no one is absolutely right. This helped me manage the expectations of my content providers and vendors and come to a decision. Ironically a "3rd party source" works sometimes... it's even mentioned in the book.
