Universal Guidelines

  • some guidelines are linked to the technical capabilities and constraints of the Web itself

    1 discriminate between what's amusing or informative and what's distracting, and then eliminate the distractions

    2 instill confidence in your primary audience by following some Web conventions

    3 provide for users with low-end systems and browsers unless there is hard data showing that the primary audience has high-end capabilities
