Kiss

Jojoyee had a link to this site (which I don't see at the time of making this post):
http://www.articlesbase.com/small-bu...t-1442278.html

Anyway, here's a quote from there:

The ideas about effective web writing go back at least 10 years and maybe even more. A former engineer for Sun Microsystems who is now a user advocate and has 79 US patents has actually written a number of articles about the subject. He frequently talks about exactly how users tend to use the internet on his web site and this has a direct bearing on the way you should write. Some of the ideas explained here are actually drawn from his work. There are numerous others on the internet who share similar ideas.

Any comments on the quoted bit?

The former engineer mentioned by the author should be Dr. Jakob Nielsen, a leading web usability consultant.

And here I always thought KISS stood for Keep It Simple, Stupid.
