Top 10 productivity tools
Here is my current list of tools that I use on a daily basis:
2007-09-18
All round webdesign tips
- site logo on top of every page (linked to homepage)
- search bar on top of every page
- personal bar on top of every page (login/logout, profile (prefs, favs, watchlist, friends,...))
top tags
ortag cloud
on homepagetop searches
suggestion on homepagesearch...
text in the searchbox to save space- clever (color coded) tabs
- breadcrumbs nav (path from homepage or session history)
flag/spam
button on every article/comment- article filtering by age (24 hours - 7 days - 30 days - all)
- flexible column width with defined min- and max-width (in em)
- all important information must be placed
above the fold
- the optimal column width is 30-70 characters
↑ go to page top
link at the bottom of the page (using up arrow)- thumbing/starring of articles/comments/users
- never define only single color. always define the whole set (color and background
- choose page <title> carefully
- every action that adds/updates/deletes data on server should be accessed by http POST method (html form)
- use em units when setting font-size. Don't use px because it does not respect user's preferences (is not relative to parent object's settings)
