10 Usability Nightmares You Should Be Aware Of

One of my favorite sites, Smashing Magazine, has this list of nightmares that’s pretty cool.

The summary is:

  1. Hidden log-in link
  2. Pop-ups for content presentation
  3. Dragging instead of vertical navigation
  4. Invisible links
  5. Visual noise
  6. Dead end
  7. Content blocks layering upon each other
  8. Dynamic navigation
  9. Drop-Down Menus
  10. Blinking images

It comes with great examples of high profile sites too!

Cheers.
