Search: Visible and Simple

Useit, May 14, 2001

Good discussion on the design and placement of search functions on your web page, with some surprising results: put the search in a box, not a link; query reformulation and advanced search are not used; scoped search should be used with caution. Also a link to his longer report on search. Recommended. By Jakob Nielsen, May 13, 2001.
