Early Facebook Navigation and UI Frustrations
- Criticking the navigational layout and design choices of early Facebook.
Navigation Difficulties
- On September 24, 2009, I expressed frustration with the user interface of Facebook.
- I noted that navigating to a page from a shared link left no clear indication of how to reach it from the top-bar navigation.
- I complained that it was impossible to tell which menu item (Home, Profile, Friends, Inbox, settings) generated the active view.
