Abstract

Web application usability is not just about good interface design. While the visual appeal of a web application is important, the fundamental structure and programming can contribute to "good usability". Usability doesn't begin and end with the user. A usable website that's built inadequately won't survive to revisions and feature additions that are necessary to all web applications. Usability give power to humans and makes it easier to deal with the technology that's infusing every aspect of modern life.

Keywords: usability, web design, web applications
