Do not click

DontClick.It is an experiment in clickless navigation.

I can't tell if my irritation with it is due to the unfamiliarity of clickless navigation and/or if their UI is irritating. E.g., I found it harder to pick from the middle of a list because mousing over an entry selects it. But if its point is that clicking is a part of the rhetoric of our neurology, it's a point well made. (From UI Hall of Fame, via Lockergnome.) [Tag: ui]
