:: Taking on Nielsen ::
While googling wiki usability, I found this article (it's somewhat old yet still relevant) that analyzes the usability mantras and myths of guru Jakob Nielsen. Good stuff.

Digital culture, power, academia, social theory... blended up with bits of the everyday and the ordinary, examined.

About this blog...
Tamara Paradis [aka "Sashay"]
...a late-30s retired IT analyst turned digital culture researcher and sociologist. Once a resident of Montreal, she has now settled into a house near downtown Toronto with her dog Sandy and two great housemates, who've got her watching a lot of TV. She's doing a joint MA at York University & Ryerson University. She hopes to find the perfect digital culture PhD program and, eventually, write the great Canadian novel. In the meantime, she plays with Sandy in the park, wanders around Second Life looking lost, reads a lot of philosophy and digital theory and concots experimental dishes in her beloved slow cooker. And this?...
This is her personal piece of the I-Space
