I’ve been a long time fan of Jakob Neilsen. I think everyone who is even remotely involved with usability has to admire his studies and scientific approach. He’s the Daddy of usability.
You may expect Neilsen to have a blog, after all any one who’s anyone has a blog these days. And yes, any people have criticised useit.com for being ugly and hard to read. What he has done since 1995 is distribute his pearls of wisdom via his Alertbox newsletter. Over a year ago Chris McEvoy setup What if Jakob Nielsen had a blog? Now he’s just updated it with over 400 alert box entries, nice work Chris! A great idea well executed.
