Designing Web Navigation review

Design is the most crucial part of getting a website off the ground. If people can't find what they want in seconds, they'll quickly move on. Designing Web Navigation is a beginner's guide to breadcrumb trails, navigation bar conventions, and even the kind of language users expect to see. There are screenshots of good and bad examples, as well as a mention of those that break the rules and get away with it. There's little in the way of coding hints - this is a book for those designing with a wysiwyg editor or are confident coders. If you want to overhaul a site or need to respond to a flood of ease-of-use complaints, this is a good investment.
