Usability voor jongeren

Jacob Nielsen strikes again. Usability van sites gericht op jongeren stelt zijn eigen eisen zo stelt hij op Alertbox:

When using websites, teenagers have a lower success rate than adults and they're also easily bored. To work for teens, websites must be simple -- but not childish -- and supply plenty of interactive features.

Many people think teens are technowizards who surf the Web with abandon. It's also commonly assumed that the best way to appeal to teens is to load up on heavy, glitzy, blinking graphics. Our study refuted these stereotypes.
