Don’t Make Me Think, Revisited a common Sense Approach to Web Usability Steve Krug

Ginny Redish, Randolph Bias, Carol
Barnum, Jennifer McGinn, Nicole Burden, Heather O’Neill, Bruno
Figuereido,
and 
Luca Salvino
.
People who contributed specific bits of their knowledge, like 
Hal Shubin,
Joshua Porter, Wayne Pau, Jacqueline Ritacco
, and the folks at the
Bayard Institute
in Copenhagen.
Lou Rosenfeld
for moral support, good counsel, and for just being Lou.
Karen Whitehouse
and 
Roger Black
, the spiritual godmother and
godfather of the book, who got me into this mess in the first place by giving
me the opportunity to write the first edition 14 years ago.

The large 
community of usability professionals
, who tend to be a very
nice bunch of folks. Go to an annual UXPA conference and find out for
yourself.
The friendly 
baristas
at the Putterham Circle Starbucks, often the only
people I see during the day other than my wife. (It’s not 
their
fault that
when corporate redesigned the place recently they decided that good
lighting wasn’t something people really needed.)
My son, 
Harry,
now finishing his degree at RPI, whose company I treasure
more than he knows. I exhaust his patience regularly by asking him to
explain to me just one more time the difference between a meme and a
trope.
If anyone has a job opening for a Cognitive Science major with a minor in
Game Design, I’ll be happy to pass it on.

And finally, 
Melanie
, who has only one known failing: an inherited lack of
superstition that leads her to say things like “Well, I haven’t had a cold all
Winter.” Apart from that, I am, as I say so often, among the most fortunate
of husbands.
If you’d like your life to be good, marry well.
