“But here’s the dirty little secret that may go farther in explaining why usability stinks: Most developers and designers don’t give a rat’s ass about it. The developers want the thing to have lots of features, so usability is the designers’ problem. The designers want the project to look great, so how it works is the developers’ responsibility. And most companies never even bother to test their sites or applications for usability.” Fredric Paul —Putting a Bad Interface on ThingsTechweb)
