I stumbled across this on an eCommerce site:</p> <p><img src="http://blog.kineticweb.com/files/terrible_ui.png" alt="" /></p> Who came up with this? And what were they on? How much simpler would it be if they just used what practically every other eCommerce site uses: <pre> 0-12 $13.00 13-24 $2.80 ...etc. </pre> <p>I took this screen shot from a 22 page <span class="caps">PDF</span> manual on how to use this particular website. Perhaps if the user interface was more carefully crafted, one wouldn&#8217;t need a <em>manual</em> on how to use the site.</p> Sun, 04 Nov 2007 12:37:00 -0500 urn:uuid:a5359131-69db-43a1-b602-d44849ec9be0 Colin A.
