jakob nielson

Went down to the design in London a couple of months ago, and was very impressed at some of the titles but not their prices. So, call me thrifty i wrote a few names down and bought them from amazon at a fraction of the price. Ironically the first title to arrive came accompanied with an identical copy, so if anybody bothers to read this blog, they shall be rewarded with a complementary copy of "Web Design: Flash Sites" (Taschen) on the house! First come first served! Claims non-redeemable outside the u.k.

Anyway, was having a read through the aforementioned book and found a reference to "Jakob Nielson". Stick his name in Google and it comes up with loads of useful tips and advice with regards to interface design.

Incase your wondering "who'se Jakob Nielson"? he is quite the authority on web and interactive design. Well worth a browse if your planning on going down the interactive path, here's a link to get you started, dynamite advice!!
