Denis: Those tabs along the bottom were an interesting way to squeeze a lot of information into a small space. But because the labels take a second or so to come up, it definitely takes some time to scan through to find what you want. I wonder if they could have done that better?

Brad Johnson: Good point... its certainly flashy looking, but maybe it does affect the usability. Suggestions for how to do it differently?

Susan: A lot of sites would just use a drop-down list... doesn't take up space, but quicker to scan.

Jim: But with these tabs, you don't actually have to click anything, whereas with a drop-down list you'd have to click to see the list. Here you can just move your mouse over it, which is kinda cool.

Susan: Couldn't you have the drop-down list ... umm, drop down, when you move your mouse over it, like without a click?

Brad Johnson: Yes Susan, that is possible to do. It all does bring up the issue of peoples' expectations, that they may have gathered from visiting other sites.

Wayne: This seems almost too simple to operate. Yet is is quite creative.
