Oops! "Join the Networks" Links corrected
This is one classic usability (or is it accessibility? Nope.) failure: Broken Links. The links to the microblogs on the "Join the Networks" block were all pointing to the registration form on the sites. These weren't broken per se but, I mean, whenever a surfer hits an "Error" wall on any website, they will simply go away. Actually, the "Bad Request" error is due to the changes that StatusNet introduced sometime back. Initially, public microblogging communities allowed registrations. But not any more. So the link to the registration form is redirected to an error page. Ouch! I should blame myself too. How can a webmaster leave broken links on such a nice online resource. Slap my wrist.
What's your take on this?
