Abstract :
A number of prescriptions are in vogue for designing Web user interfaces, but Web site usability continues to be a serious issue. In comparison, the usability of traditional GUI applications is a couple of notches better. The key difference is in the design methods used. The author argues that improving Web design methods is possible by learning from the GUI design approach.
