Gmail UI failure
Today I opened a Gmail window. At the top of the screen, I saw a yellow message beginning, “Hey, this is important! …” I never finished reading it because I had clicked something else (a message) and the supposedly important message disappeared, never to be seen again.
So the Gmail team either
- Lied about the importance of the message, or
- Totally failed to make me actually read it.
Not so impressive UI design.
