Open Letter to sites with annoying interfaces

Wow, that's just silly. I agree - "Delete" is simply not a subset of "Edit"ing an option in a configuration. It may be a subset of editing the entire configuration, but having a two-step process that makes a non-connected action into a child action is mind boggling. People need to learn their CRUD/BREAD better.

Interesting that you write 'Edit' vs. 'edit'...

Here is another issue I just filed last night:

https://github.com/mozilla/browserid/issues/809

tl;dr: Super minor, but the case of buttons is actually important UX too.

I'm worried about BrowserID UX because we are implementing it on our site as an additional login system along with Facebook Connect. I'd love to see BrowserID become successful since we need an alternative to Facebook and OpenID is a train wreck. But, I worry that with bad UX, it will remain just an unused interesting idea.

Yeah, but I'm probably just used to it and since I was referring to BREAD, it kind of made sense. I guess it's one of those age old questions like "do we say 'your' or 'my'?".
