Pompous know-betters try to teach us mortals. We don't need your help. Go away.

So, here you have it: top tep design mistakes of Pompous Know-better "UI Experts".

1. Pompous Author Biographies

Need I say more?

2. Pompous Pictures of Pompous Authors

Need I say more?

3. Know-It-All Post Titles

They're pretty annoying since you're probably all wrong too.

4. Trying To Fit Sentences To Nice Link Titles

It's too much hassle to try to make nice link titles all the time. It's not the link title, but the link target that counts.

5. Classic "Hits" Are Shamelessly Advertised Even Though They Might Be Full Of Shit

Your typical Pompous "UI Expert" is over-confident of his own excellence and thus blind of his own stupidities.

6. Categorizing

It might be fun for your typical anal-retentive librarian, but We, The Great Majority, Just Don't Care. We use categories mostly to make puns, if any.

7. Forgetting That RSS Readers Don't Care Whether You Post Infrequently Or Not

If someone from my subscription list doesn't post for a year, I might not even notice it. Even when that someone posts again. I just read the stuff that's fed to me.

8. Babbling About The Same Topic Over And Over And Over Again

Please stop it. As you must have noticed already, we just don't care.

9. Forgetting That You Write For Adults, Not For High School Students

Has it ever occurred to you that adults might be capable doing decisions by themselves?

10. Trying To Boost One's Ego With A Domain Name (It's So 90's, Get Over It)

Our identity and self-worth is not based on the domain name of our website.
