comment Do American users also confuse the day and the month in dates like 01/02/2013
I always fail when going into a ps3 game site that asks age confirmation and there's input fields defaulted like "01/01/2013", even if the inputs are dropdowns, I first try typing 14 into the first, and then I notice that the dropdown has max value of 12, so then I type the 14 into the second field and put the month in the first one. I'm from Finland and we have dd.mm.yyyy.

comment What are some unusual job titles for UX designers
When I see Microsoft people with their Evangelist titles, I'm like "gaaahhhh, why", but Senior Usability Hero sounds excellent. It's nice that in some fields playful job titles work and can be approved to be cool instead of inappropriate.

Nice that you provided the two different examples. I agree with putting them on the left if there's room for them.

comment Help menu - “?” or “Help”?
Good answer, "?" is not help. Help is help. "Don't make me think"

comment Should offensive/vulgar usernames be banned?
Very hard thing to accomplish, because of different languages and peoples real names in cultures. Years ago I was playing one online game on a German server, and I wrote "lul" (meaning lol) in the public chat. That got me banned, and later on I heard that "lul" is male genital term in Dutch... Maybe I would just ban usernames that are insulting a real person, like "BobXxx-Is-Yyy-Molestor". That ofcourse can't be done automatically, and banning shouldn't happen automatically anyway based on the username, because of languages / cultures.

comment Should registration email for a website greet with “Congratulation”?
In the header you say "invitation email", do you mean that someone has invited you to some site? Why would invitation say "you are part of this site", unless you yourself have signed up?
