The Do-It-Yourself Guide to Finding
and Fixing Usability Problems

Krug teaching workshopNine years after writing Don't Make Me Think, I finally decided it was time to write another book.

This time, it's a how-to book that explains exactly how to do your own usability testing.

I wrote it because I really do believe that everyone can—and should—be doing their own testing.

Here are a sample chapter and the table of contents, which should give you a good idea of what the book is like.

The 25 minute video of a demo usability test mentioned in Chapter 2 is on my publisher's site. You can watch it there, or download it in several different formats.

And here are the other downloadable files mentioned in the book:
