Join NavigationArts' Director of User Research as she explores the latest web design trends and how they impact usability. A website that was considered highly usable in 1995 would probably not appear so today. What about a site from 2005? How do user expectations for the Web effect a site's usability, and how can you factor that into your plans for your website?
