Dont Make Me Think and Html World Wide Web

Steve Krug2002
People won't use your web site if they can't find their way around it. Whether you call it usability, ease-of-use, or just good design, companies staking their fortunes and their futures on their Web sites are starting to recognize that it's a bottom-line issue. In Don't Make Me Think, usability expert Steve Krug distills his years of experience and observation into clear, practical--and often amusing--common sense advice for the people in the trenches (the designers, programmers, writers, editors, and Webmasters), the people who tell them what to do (project managers, business planners, and marketing people), and even the people who sign the checks. Krug's clearly explained, easily absorbed principles will help you sleep better at night knowing that all the hard work going into your site is producing something that people will actually want to use.

Great book for beginners to web design, UX and any form of digital development. Whilst the book is a few years old (which, in the digital world, means *really old*) Krug's design laws are still as applicable today as they were ten years ago. Many web professionals undermine the importance of design in everyday concept development and consider it something only specialised design professionals should deal with. Whilst there's an element of truth in that (developers are most certainly *not* designers) Krug points out the importance of at least 'thinking' like a designer and considering some basic yet powerful methodologies that turn the web into a prettier, spaced-out place - where words are 'omitted' and navigation is as simple as can be. Check this book out if you're interested in heading towards Internet-based work or you're a self-taught web professional who missed out on learning some of those basic design and UX principles.
