About World of Books Ltd West Sussex, United Kingdom
Biblio member since 2007
In 2002, World of Books was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet, and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into a global pioneer, dedicated to helping people read more and waste less. Through the World of Books brand, customers can now buy and sell with us! We provide affordable, preloved books to book lovers all around the world, while also giving people the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet by trading in their unwanted books and media for cash. Through the B2B side of our business we've developed technology to help charities sell in bulk, meaning they can clear much needed floor space and make money for great causes at the same time. A new book will be sold once but their stories can be enjoyed by more than one owner. After all, a story doesn't change because it's been read before!

I stopped reading because I was tempted to steal stuff for my next book!" --Steve Krug, author of Don't Make Me Think
"I just want it to work!"
That's what "usability" means to the user. It's about whether a product or service does what the user wants--and expects--it to do. And that's what makes people want--or not want--what you have to sell. This book is packed with suggestions, steps, and guidelines to help you create products and services that do what users want. Many of them are unbelievably simple. They just work.
HOW TO CREATE USABLE STUFF
- Have clear goals for what you want to accomplish
- Use the checklists in each chapter to help you spot potential problems
- Learn what makes users happy--or not happy
- Discover three keys to responsiveness
- Put logical reasoning to work for you
- Improve profitability by improving usability
