Site Seeing Ch 3

-Make sure pages are able to load quickly and find what they need. They don't want to spend forever looking for the next link they want to click.

-Consider CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to force an order of loading on the web page. This helps keep things small and loading quickly. If the audience see's things loading, they will wait for things to finish loading.

-Consider the way the user browses the internet. If in a "browserless" pop-up window (one without the tool buttons), make sure they have an easy way to navigate around. I know for one that the back button is one of my favorite navigating buttons other than my left mouse button. There are also drawbacks to browserless, its hardered for visitors to bookmark or copy the URL to send to friends.

-When designing with non-standards, keep in mind, that if a navigation feature doesn't resemble some similarities with other of the same types of navigation through out the web...the user might not know what it is.

-All web pages should contain a title, a link back to the home, an indication when the page was last updated, and a way to contact a person about the page.
