    If you only read one book on web usability, this is it. A classic--I get something new each time that I read it.

    Common sense is the least common thing around.
    A must-read for non-designers involved in a web or application design

    (Desperately needs a new, updated edition, though... )

    Great book about usability, no major revelations but Krug articulated the message simply & brilliantly.

    Read it a while ago, it's not new but probably still has value.

    Trivial, short and disappointing. Read it in 90 minutes.

    Most of the information is really common sense, as the subtitle indicates. Written for non-techies in a playful style. Some tips about persistent navigation, secondary navigation, usability tests, how your homepage should look like, how to choose your tagline, and a lot more......

    Simple, no-nonsense advice on usability process and benefits... Specially useful for the uninitiated and underfunded.

    Absolutely helpful and absolutely entertaining! How many usability books make you laugh out loud? Krug's book is a great introduction or refresher for web usability. He covers the most important bits, with parallels to the real world.

    Bonus: He includes a suggested reading list at the end, with cover art and explanations for why you might read each book. I've followed his advice on a few, and have been very pleased.
