Huh.
Well now, let's evaluate this bad boy.
One of my lectures named 5 properties that define the usability of a system.
1. Easy to learn
2. Efficient
3. Easy to remember
4. Relatively error-free or error forgiving
5. Pleasant to use
Let's see...
Easy to learn...pretty easy. I had my diary up about fifteen minutes after activating my account. It wasn't particularly pretty, but it was up and accessible, so, not rocket science.
Efficient...does the diaryland interface allow a high level of productivity? Sort of. The main thing I found problematic was that if I wanted to look back at something or click on a FAQ in the middle of writing an entry, unless I right-clicked my mouse and had the thing open up in a new window, I would lose everything I just wrote. Frustrating.
Easy to remember...yup. Once again, not rocket science.
Relatively error-free or error forgiving...hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa! *choke*
Pleasant to use...well, it's no iron maiden or torture rack, so I can't really complain, although there have been times when I wanted to kill it.
Okay, now to take those five points and turn them into a paper. Grr.
