The new site design is really a giant leap backwards in usability.
Hi Niles,
Can you help me out a little bit – we’re still in the middle of the finishing touches on the redesign, but what specifically is making it harder to use?
Brian
Two usability items that I’ve noticed:
– I miss the links for the next and previous posts
– I don’t like that the album art thumbnails are hidden initially.
I often listen to coverville at work via desktop itunes. I keep a tab on my browser open to the episode I’m listening to. If I hear a song I like (or wonder about), I glance at the album art in iTunes and then switch to the browser window. This used to be quicker than waiting for iTunes’ rotating display to show the title/artist again.
When iTunes takes me to the next episode of Coverville, I want to click on the “next episode” link on my Coverville tab. No such luck now.
They’re definitely valid points. At the very least, I should be able to get “Next Post/Prev Post” links in there.
The purpose of the changes were to really clean up the design, which I felt was getting very cluttered. And the album art was part of that. I couldn’t go much narrower for an album art column, but I still wanted to find a way I could include it. And not having the art really opened up the table and made it much easier to read overall.
That said, let me see if there’s a way for users to override the CSS of the new site with their own CSS file that they can download and store locally.
Unfortunately, I have to agree. I much preferred seeing the song list on the main page itself. Gives a glimpse at what’s being featured. Now we need to click on the episode to see it, and I see no way back to viewing past episodes currently although I’m sure that’s still being worked on as the archive link isn’t currently working.
I actually really like the collapsible list you’ve started using a few episodes ago. If there’d be a way to have a collapsible list on the main page with the main page, it might be more usable.
