11/18/2001 Entry: "18-Nov-2001 -- What's happening? A new look at Web pages"

What's happening? A new look at Web pages (Digital Web) -- "As Web designers we expend a lot of energy on making our Websites user-friendly, but we can't help but take too much for granted -- we are just too familiar with Websites. We're also too familiar with computers. We assume that users can tell that a window exists and so we cheerfully open a pop-up window and even provide a "close" button. I watch my new-user clients get totally bewildered when we encounter one of these pop-ups."
