    Default Don't Make Me Think

    I've been reading up on a book titled, "Don't Make Me Think" by Steven Krug. It's a tad bit dated, but the concepts inside are really eye opening. I think a lot of what he has to say should be considered when designing our real estate sites.

    I'm looking at my main site and can see plenty of areas that I could improve.

    Anyone else taken the time to read this book? It's a quick read - a few hours should do it. I actually picked this one up from the local library.

    It's about web design and usability - how to make a website that converts leads. It's not written precisely for real estate, but I believe that we should seriously look at a lot of the beliefs that this guy expresses in the book.

    I'm almost done reading it and will share my thoughts soon.
