On redesigning Yahoo

Larry Tessler, in a Business Week interview, on redesigning the Yahoo homepage:

...a good design will provide both a useful set of functions that meet an unmet need and deliver those functions through an outstanding user experience. The design has to maximize both of those and get them to support each other. Everything has to be very fast, which can be an issue on the Internet, and be very simple. Sometimes things appear to be simple, but aren't.
The other thing I've been pushing hard since I got here is that using Yahoo should be a delightful experience.

(Thanks, Phil)
