Site Navigation
Posted under » Logo & Design on 04 April 2009
Usable user interface and ease of navigation determines the success of a website.
In this website, I use dhtml menu on the top left plus the use of categories.
Previously, web breadcrumbs were used on this site. It was removed because breadcrumbs are not necessarily appropriate for sites whose content is so rich that single categories do not fully describe a particular piece of content. For example, is OOP under PHP or Actionscript? In general, wherever a strict hierarchy is not applicable, location breadcrumbs are inappropriate.
In it's place are categories which I place under the title. We often see this in blogs while some call it taxonomy or tags.
I've also added in a search engine on the top right of the page.
In this website, I am trying to achieve the look and feel of a blog driven website. As I am writting articles, it would be a good idea if I include the article's date. In blogs you can have your articles sorted according to date other than by categories.
