Required reading and referencing March 12, 2008

Required reading to anyone working online even though it is a couple of years old now the way it can be referenced across coloured sections to piece each project together is a real help.
It is too much to read it one go but if you take a problem to it and read again you can get more incite and solutions out.
 Greate collection of Patterns November 5, 2006
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Basically, this most valuable thing in this book is the extensive collection of patterns that anyone can use to create any website.
Follow this patterns guidelines and you will have an useful and usable website.
It's a "must" in any web designer's bookshelf.
 Review October 23, 2005
6 out of 14 found this review helpful
The first part of the book is very valuable. The patterns described are on average rather shallow and don't touch on the real issues. For the 'novice' however this is a very relevant book to read. I do advice to deepen understanding by looking at actual websites to see how leaders have implemented the different patterns. Much more to learn there.
Very handy reference book and checklist October 4, 2005
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
While there are many books on the market that discuss patterns related to programming, architectural elements, etc., this is the first book I've seen that focuses on web patterns at the user interface level. The book is essentially an indexed, cross-referenced, best practices guide to building web pages that attract and keep customers. Or at least keep you from pissing them off. The authors have collected and summarized a great deal of HCI research (all listed in the resources section of the appendix) on web usability, so none of this stuff is made up--it's all based on time-proven, tested, and verified data about how people actually use the Internet (e.g., see Amazon, Yahoo!, Google, et. al.). A few of the patterns are no longer considered best practices, due to evolving standards (e.g., CSS) and increasing browser standards support. This is a very handy reference book, especially for an in-depth UI checklist.
