Jakob Nielsen’s “Ten Steps for Cleaning Up Information Pollution”

January 12, 2004

Nielsen’s UseIt.com is a great site on info tech usability that all tech librarians should have on their happy-site list (has an RSS feed too). His newest suggestions for cleaning up info glut are wonderful, and have some suggestions for companies/organizations as well as individuals. Please, anything that will result in less than 150 useless e-mails a day in my inbox…please.

    What a terrible website. I can’t even find the RSS feed you mention.

    Here’s the URL for the RSS feed: http://myrss.com/f/u/s/useitVc11po1.rss I’ll admit it’s not a pretty site, but that’s because Nielsen is the usability-king. He designs for the lowest common denominators (browser, connection speed, disabilities, etc.). That’s what makes it usable. I’ve found his site to be useful, and I hope others do too.
