I had to close this conversation into a new thread or post becuase my rebuttel needed a new post.
Please read Jared’s comment first.
Okay, I still don’t agree that you can say that having no sidebars is usability deficient because the only way you can get away with that statement is if you avoid the other pieces of the definition of usability.
Something that usability has is a “former view”. Yes, the former view of blogs is a content column and a sidebar column. I think the reason for this was not of function or usability but because it was easy to manage and produce. The former view always needs to be changed, if not we would have manual transmission cars or browsers without tabbed browsing because the former view would deem any change as having usability issues.
Yes, I said it, not having sidebars, I think, is an advancement. I personally think they are clutter and distracting to such a point the reader blocks them out. When I go to an actual site I rarely look at the sidebar unless it’s for navigation which 99% of all blogs do not have (archives don’t count IMHO).
You bring up Nathan’s comment, but (more…)

Jared and I have been emailing each other about Akismet and how he prefers Spam Karma 2 over it and all I have to say is Akismet is better much better.
He says that it doesn’t take long to setup and that’s true for both but if you want the full capability to work for Spam Karma you need to roll up your sleeves, where as Akimet you do not. And I would assume that it processes more spam a minute then Spam Karma would on Jared’s blog in a year, so why wouldn’t it be better?
Jared complains about how he was moderated but I had to remind him that I was blocked by Spam Karma on his blog months ago, and while he says it only took him “two seconds” to approve my comments it took me the same. So the difference? None. Except Akismet does a better job.
Even with all my fanfare about Akismet I would like to see two new features. A mycomments type of function, if almost everyone on wordpress is using Akismet and they are collecting the comments too they might as well. The second is a notification option, I might be missing it, but an email saying what email it has caught in a daily summary.
Inside the Net 12: Merlin Mann of 43folders.com was one of the best podcasts I’ve heard in a long time. So much insight on how to be more productive and it helped me realize that I need to cut down the time I spend on the net.
The first thing I’m going to do is cut my feeds by to … Read More »
