List Comments

Great List - thanks for the tips!

Wonderful list. I want them all!!

Don't Make Me Think????

@miss_alina - I didn't add Don't Make Me Think, because although it is a good book, it is more an intro to the idea of usability for those outside a user-centered design discipline. This list consists more of practical and in-depth resources for IxD/UX practitioners (though there are some maybe non-obvious books I have included).
