Navigation Using software tools to browse the web

Accessing the web using the common features of a browser
Using hyperlinks to access a range of resources on the web
Reading, evaluating, and manipulating URLs
Recognizing the common visual cues in web services
Exploring browser add-ons and extensions to provide additional functionality

There was no issue with

accessing the web using the common features of a browser

There was a call for clarifying:

Recognizing the visual cues in everyday web services

This was called ambiguous and some felt it made add-ons and extensions sound essential

Using browser add-ons and extensions to provide additional functionality

Any ideas?

I see no issue with the second one. As with many issues here, it is elaborated in the club activity. Take a look at Kraken the code tip sheet, where it is connected with search and reliability. Overlapping once more...

How about removing the "everyday"? Visual cues exist in all services and websites, and they should be noted.

jgmac1106 commented 9 years ago

Visual cues are also more important in mobile v desktop browsing. I can use my menu bars and website meus.

I'd hate to say navigational cues so maybe just removibg everyday makes sense.

gaditb commented 9 years ago

By "everyday" do we just mean "common"? Like, common patterns used in UI? (Links are blue and/or underlined, hamburger menu (is this too just-now, not-yet-definitely-gonna-stick? I have limited sense of time or awareness), tabs provides different view or different content that can be switched back and forth... (not an exhaustive or a prioritized list))

Thanks @jgmac1106 - have (re-)added accessing the web using the common features of a browser to the REFINE tab and at the top of this issue.

Thanks for pointing out the problem with 'everyday', @xellpher. I like @gaditb's suggestion that we go with 'common'. How about the following?

Recognizing the common visual cues in web services

In terms of the other one, we could change it to:

Exploring browser add-ons and extensions to provide additional functionality

Thoughts? :)
