Fast & Easy Site Tune-Ups

Jeff Wisniewski from University of Pittsburgh provided a zillion little tools and suggestions for improving website usability and speed.  A lot of these are somewhat technical, but a few practical (if controversial) suggestions were:

• Use 3 question surveys on exit from the website using surveymonkey
• Use icons consistently from wikimedia
• Web 2.0-ify your logo using the Web 2.0 Stylr
• Add photos to contacts (which increases user trust & personal connection) and use hCard microformat contact cards.

...with that I'm off to lunch.
