Weblog usability: The top ten design mistakes
Jakob Nielsen recently released an article on his Alertbox on the top ten design mistakes for weblog usability. Among the mistakes, and my self-assessment against this weblog, are:
- No author biographies (sort of guilty)
- No author photo (guilty)
- Nondescript posting titles (not guilty!)
- Links don't say where they go (not guilty!)
- Classic hits are buried (not guilty!)
- The calendar is the only navigation (not guilty! use categories)
- Irregular publishing frequency (guilty)
- Mixing topics (guilty)
- Forgetting that you write for your future boss (not guilty!)
- Having a domain name owned by a weblog Service (not guilty!)
4 mistakes out of 10. Not too bad. How does yours rate?

So do I.
