11 usability principles for CMS products

Hi all,

I've just published a new article titled "11 usability principles
for CMS products":

http://www.steptwo.com.au/papers/kmc_usabilitycms/index.html

* minimise the number of options
* be robust and error-proof
* provide task-based interfaces
* hide implementation details
* meet core usability guidelines
* match authors' mental models
* support both frequent and infrequent users
* provide efficient user interfaces
* provide help and instructions
* minimise training required
* support self-sufficiency

Would be interested to hear your thoughts, and to continue these
discussions on the list...

Cheers,
James
