Summary: A must have reference on your web-building bookshelf
Comment: I bought this book to supplement a class I am taking to update my web design skills (I've been involved in web design & content management for over ten years).

I was a bit hazy on the "infrastructure" lesson, so I asked my teacher which book she recommended for extra information. She recommended this one.

THANK GOODNESS she did!

It's easy to read and understand and it's short so it did NOT end up in the pile o' books I have yet to read (I literally read half of it the day it arrived on my doorstep). It clarified all of my questions and doubts on how to organize a website and how to design for ease of use.

This book is a BLESSING in every sense.

Thank you so much, Steve, for a fantastic reference!

Summary: Buy this, then get busy testing your site!
Comment: I can think of very few sites that couldn't be improved by applying the principles in this book. It does what "Web Sites That Suck" attempts to do, but instead of giving examples of horrible web sites that are most likely beyond fixing, it uses examples of pretty decent sites that just need a little help. I assume the vast majority of sites fall into the latter category, which is why this book is so useful.

The chapter on do-it-yourself usability testing is a real gem -- worth the price of the whole book and then some.

Summary: Some things are only obvious after they're pointed out...
Comment: This book compels you to think about how people use websites. I tend to think in terms of visual appeal instead of funneling visitors towards a conversion. The author gives a lot of common sense ideas to use in compelling your visitors towards the actions you'd like them to perform. It's a good intro & I would recommend following up by reading Tim Ashs' "Landing Page Optimization" for more in depth material on this subject.

Summary: Great content. Bad book
Comment: Well.. The book is awesome. Some stuff (which i didn't care too much until now) was new to me, some other stuff wasn't too strange for me. From this point of view, the book have 10 stars from me.

Unfortunately, some pages of the books just fly out from the book (unglued) which made a very VERY bad impression to me. And yes, i take care of all of my books and how do i read them ;) From this point of view, the book have 1star (even though, is too much :P )

Anyhow, if you want to learn some new stuff about usability and usability testing, go ahead and buy this book. It's great if you concern about this aspect of your sites. Is not too long so you can read on a long LONG road (like i did).
