Breadcrumbs examined

Ich habe vorhin ja bereits von Navigation gesprochen - da sind Breadcrumbs natürlich nicht weit: Breadcrumb Navigation Examined: Best Practices & Examples.

Breadcrumb navigation is often overlooked in the design and development process. Some people may see it as unnecessary while others may feel it is too big of a hassle for what its worth. Fact of the matter is, breadcrumb navigation will greatly increase the usability of a website. Breadcrumbs give users an alternative method of navigation, allow them to see where they stand in the hierarchy of a website, and will reduce the number of steps needed to navigate to a higher-level within a website.

Ich habe im März 2007 noch einen etwas längeren Beitrag zum Thema Breadcrumbs geschrieben.
