I certainly understand the need for testing and am a strong advocate for the process but it’s hard to find ways to make a case for it in a world where testing and usability aren’t considered important. Reading this book further highlighted the importance of frequent testing. This is something that I’ll consider from now on whenever I’m designing something new or performing a UI review. A reservoir that can be emptied over time but can also be replenished. However, the way the author described this really clicked with me. I generally knew that if you annoy users enough with bad design choices that they’ll leave your site and never come back. The best example is the idea of the reservoir of good will. With that said, I found that from reading this book I have new ways to explain these concepts. There were a lot of things I already knew before reading this book. I’ve certainly seen and heard this book being recommended in lots of places. I imagine a lot of designers would consider this book a staple to read to become a good designer. There are lots of great insights and guidelines for creating websites, apps, and designs that are highly usable.Įven though this book is quite old now by technological standards, it still offers timeless advice and helpful examples.

I would recommend this book to anyone interested or working in Usability design, Web design, and Web development. It boils down a lot of complex and indepth usability research and best practices into easy to understand advice with examples. Don’t Make Me Think was a transformative reading experience for me.
