Moving Forward


In this chapter I talked about the importance of highly navigable software. Remember, navigation refers to how the user gets to where he needs to be in your software. Don’t make the user jump through hoops, or the user will quickly become frustrated with your product. Your product will then find its way into the metaphorical “round file” known as the Recycle Bin. (Although Apple’s Trash is probably a more appropriate name in this case!)

In the next chapter I move away from the screen and onto paper. No, computers didn’t give us “paperless offices” as people once thought they would. If anything, we now have more papers, except now those papers have pretty fonts rather than illegible handwriting all over them. In the next chapter I talk about how you can make your data and printouts more useable, even when the printouts appear on screen.
