IKEA!
In IKEA stores they have a set plan of action that they want you to take. I would be damn near impossible to go in there for the 1st time and go directly to the section you wanted to see first. There is order and structure and once you know that structure you can work around it but with out the basis you are lost. There are signs telling you were you are on the floor, on the ceiling, on the posts. As a whole they put signage on every level possible. They also give you the option of how you like to view a product. They put it in a room with accessories as well as in amongst a pile of similar product so that you can easily go from one to the other. When it comes to the accessories they are all about repetition and i think that is a weakness. Whether you need and entire wall of one style of cup or pan is a bit insane. They fill up every open surface possible. I do that the floor signs are really innovative and helpful because that is not something that you commonly find. I do nottice that the more I go to IKEA the less I pay attension to signs. I know where I want to go but I still tend to follow the path in case I find something new and AMAZING on the way to what I am looking for. I don't think many other store could function in this manner because the quick in and out is very important these days. Target would never be allowed to have you walked in the door and move from kids to womens to mens to toys to bath ... there wouldnt be a flow and there are too many products and wants that people go into stores for. It works for them but I cant see it being implemented anywhere else
USABILITY CRIME!
So I was parusing and I was lead to the Cover Girl site. I am looking around and i decided to take a look at whats new. They had special offers so I wanted to see if there was coupons or something. It brings me to this page and there is a picture that has a rollover hand but its not letting me click. Finally I moved the cursor around and there was CHAOS. Everything and its mother started moving, flying in and out and whether you can click on things or not depends entirely on who knows what. Sometimes it does nothing and other times it brings you to a new page. I still don't understand their purpose!
