Information Architecture for Menus

Abstract

At this point in the book, you’ve already seen several real-world examples of menus incorporating good and bad features, and some general guidelines for creating usable menus. The rules and guidelines we’ve covered so far apply to how a good menu works, but not so much what it says. In other words, you now know how to provide good, readable, usable navigation, but we haven’t yet talked about where you’re navigating people to.
