comment Why did Google opt-out of hardware buttons for Nexus devices?
There's a hardware reset on my Nexus 7 actioned by holding down the power and volume buttons: however knowing that its there requires one to go hunting in the instruction book.

comment Is the StackExchange model a good one for avoiding duplicate questions on community Q&A sites
I think the problem is that it requires some effort to look through the 'similar answers' list...

comment What are good ways to map out the sequence of user interactions on a page?
I think you missed out the all important word 'client' in the last sentence in the description above. So what you want is a format for showing the flow to the client - not the flow to the user ?

comment Is there a job board for UX designer?
I agree with Igor. Since search engines are supposed to index all sites; start with the search engine and do more specific searches.

comment “Tool” or “target” on vacuum cleaner pedal?
I think this design is actually less clear and has exactly the same issue as the image in the question: is the top setting putting the edge bristles on the cleaning head down - or is it for using on the carpet ?

comment Why do we say we “browse” to a place on the Internet when we actually download a web server’s content to our browser?
No, in the innocent early days of the internet you 'surfed' not 'browsed' - as the internet was a cool thing you could do (very, very slowly) on your Apple Mac !

comment Should I Put a Phone Number in the Header?
Before dealing with small e-commerce sites - I always phone to make sure a person answers the phone and that it sounds like there actually is a company behind the website...

comment Can you, and should you, design against buyer's remorse?
Japanese electronics products used to come with a feel good statement: eg "Congratulation on your purchase of a Yamaha NS-10M STUDIO. Monitor Speaker System! The NS-10M STUDIO has been pain- stakingly designed to offer superior near field monitoring performance" yamaha.com/yamahavgn/Documents/ProAudio/ns10ms.pdf

comment How do you recruit users for usability evaluation?
If you have the budget you can outsource the actual recruitment of users to market research recruiters, who will be geared up for recruiting specific types of users.
