Notification for remove operations Note that I had read and answered this before the question had been changed to reveal that: the person that does the removal isn't the person to be notified but the person that was removed. In which context this answer doesn't make as much sense. |

What lessons can we learn about Metro UX from Windows 8? note that the link to the "Windows Phone 7 Series UI Design & Interaction Guide" PDF has been broken by Microsoft but the PDF is available elsewhere for reference: v1.0 (sha1:60d583f3b3995690b78c837bbcba8149bf631156 "UI Design and Interaction Guide for Windows Phone 7 Series.pdf" 69 pages) or v2.0 (sha1:95d134ebeeefdf9ad6183ab08b471aaaa292e6e4 "UI Design and Interaction Guide for Windows Phone 7.pdf" 101 pages) |

Why does Firefox remove the “close tab button” when you have more than n tabs open unless you focus on the tab? I don't click with the scroll wheel |

Is it a good idea to put the word “or” between buttons on a screen Does your form read as a sentence? If it does [use or], otherwise [don't use or]. (picture the text within brackets as button labels) |

Why does Firefox remove the “close tab button” when you have more than n tabs open unless you focus on the tab? @Barfieldmv actually clicking the middle mouse button when its a scroll wheel is much harder than clicking either of the other mouse buttons and even using 3rd mouse button emulation (which I should re-enable) via clicking both the left and right at the same time is easier than clicking a scroll wheel |

Why does Firefox remove the “close tab button” when you have more than n tabs open unless you focus on the tab? [Note I use Chrome 12] I prefer having the tab close button visible on every tab as it makes it easier to target with the mouse but then again I use the scroll wheel to switch tabs (which Chrome only supports on Linux and I get annoyed when I use browsers that don't support it) |

Research behind row height within a table? This is the same as increased line spacing and the same reasoning for it applies. |

How does a “mental model” relate to an information model note that in the context of this question the terms: information model and data model may be considered synonymous. If you think otherwise, reply. |

How do you A/B test a ranking algorithm? Please update the question to reflect that this is a ranking formula and not actually a sorting algorithm. |

What are the functional advantages of disabling user access to the filesystem on the iPad? dividing your documents into silos based on what program created them results in project fragmentation where the resources for a project are spread across many application without any way to see all of them in a single list. |

Can you see a good reason to remove the plus sign in Google Chrome's create tab button? Note that because the change New tab icon drop only replaced png images and affected no code, it would be easy to revert. Issue for complaints |

Can you see a good reason to remove the plus sign in Google Chrome's create tab button? Chrome's placement of open in new tab as the first option on the context menu makes activating it easy because the action involves only option click which is even faster than using the middle mouse button. (note that the mouse has two named buttons select and option where they are commonly left and right respectfully.) And Chrome can open a new tab and close a tab so quickly that most of the time I use the tab list as a queue and use open in new tab to place pages into it. |

Can you see a good reason to remove the plus sign in Google Chrome's create tab button? By the time it gets really tight in the tab bar, it really means you should create a new window and split the tabs up into them. Well, in Chrome I'm a big user of tabs (I had 269 tabs open in 37 windows) but my new tabs come from the context menu's open in tab_ and not from the _new tab button and so the removal of this button's label will in no way reduce the number of tabs I use. thus I see the removal of the new tab button's label as silly. Also I have to start Chrome with my network disabled to prevent it from loading all the tabs I have open and using up all memory and paging. |

Can you see a good reason to remove the plus sign in Google Chrome's create tab button? Now that I know to which plus @Rahul was refering, I now strongly feel that the removal shouldn't have been done. |
