I wondering where is the best position to place the menu in the top of the screen to it be visualized and accessed. I think that menus in the left side and near the content are most viewed and accessed that central,right and near of top menus.
My question here is in the top of the screen, where is the place to put the menus? At left, right, center, near the top, near the content, another place?
EDIT: This question is not about top vs left or right, just about top menus.
An example: in this page, "chat, meta, about, faq" are in near the top and in the right. "Questions, Tags, Users, Badges, Unanswered" are in the right too, but near the content.
There is a more visualized position to put the menus on screen?
