What is the best approach to design registration page @adrianh: good point. See What makes OpenID so difficult to use by persons with no technical background? |

What is the best approach to design registration page @MarjanVenema: OpenId is transparent when it comes to registration. From the user's point of view, I would rather call it association (with an OpenId account) rather than a registration. |

Synonym for 'GUI' for non-technical people? +1. I actually missed the fact that to the users, interface is the actual program. |

Do non-technical/non-web savvy users understand the concept of tags? @icc97: my point is that "many people have difficulty thinking in terms of hierarchical data structures" and "The human brain works by summarizing the objects and incorporating them into some hierarchy." is somehow contradictory. |

Do non-technical/non-web savvy users understand the concept of tags? @johnfound: "Unfortunately, hierarchical trees are one of the most inappropriately used controls in the toolbox. They can be highly problematic for users; many people have difficulty thinking in terms of hierarchical data structures.", About Face 3, The Essentials of Interaction Design, Alan Cooper, Robert Reimann and David Cronin, ISBN 978-0-470-08411-3, p. 457. |

Do non-technical/non-web savvy users understand the concept of tags? @Nadyne Richmond: agreed, and the fact that some apps use the term categories when it's actually tags makes things more difficult then they are. Office website tells that "A category is a keyword or phrase that [...]": that's clearly a tag. In the same way, several French websites I know use the term categories when the exact term would be tags. |

Industry standard for button captions that use a Function Key as the keyboard shortcut @Ben Brocka: true; discoverability problem seems to cover more and more Microsoft's products. Just look how important this problem is in Windows 8 (and it's not limited to shortcuts). |

Industry standard for button captions that use a Function Key as the keyboard shortcut @Laoujin: The poster of the original question already knows that and already uses mnemonics for Alt-type shortcuts. |

Industry standard for button captions that use a Function Key as the keyboard shortcut @StuperUser: in Visual Studio? With my configuration, it auto-formats the source code. But this may not be the case for other people, given that the configuration depends of what was chosen when originally installing VS, and that every shortcut may be changed later. |
