A usability question relating to Opine Bovine – the links to various other parts of the site are by way of buttons that look like form elements. I did the same thing with Cal on Morning After TV. There’s something strange about them. I can’t bring myself to click on them, because they look like submit buttons and part of me is convinced that if I click on them I will in fact be submitting some kind of form. Submit buttons also being generally contentless items, my eyes seem to slip over them on the page – as if they only have a meaning in context. It feels like someone started writing interesting little titbits in the bit at the top of the book page where it normally says what chapter or book you’re reading. And they did it half way through the book. Just to confuse you.
