Compelling.
A form button that says Submit gives users the impression that the form isn’t focused on a specific task. It also gives off the impression that your website is not user-friendly because you’re speaking in a technical way that most users aren’t familiar with. If this is the impression your users get when they fill out your form, you can bet that you’re losing a few users in the process.
Yes.
What is the advantage here? Well imagine that steel is like fabric. Regular stainless steel would be like burlap. Strong but with lots of holes and hard to cut and sew. VG10 would be like denim. Much tighter weave easier to cut for sewing and a lot more durable. SG2 would be like fine silk. Super fine threads for maximum density, super flexible, easiest to cut and sew, and definitely the strongest fabric that will last the longest even though it is the thinnest. In all of the cutting steels that I have come across in my 17 years of housewares, SG2 simply blows everything else away for performance, edge retention, and re-sharpening. Because of the powderizing and HIP processes, you end up with an alloy that has a much higher density and grain structure with no imperfections or weak points. Just like silk. This allows us to increase the Rockwell hardness to 64, and the edge will still have flexibility so it won’t chip, and can be re-sharpened. Even if it is paper thin.
I’m looking at knives for our new apartment and currently stuck between the Globals and the Shun Elites. Any input would be appreciated.
I wants it.

I’m thinking about redesigning my theme again and I’m considering a few key design options: single vs. dual sidebars, and, if I go with a single, which side to put it on.
First I started reading about the prominent opinions on the matter but quickly realized that I preferred the “what are people actually using” approach. One of my favorite blogs is Daring Fireball, and he uses a single sidebar on the left, but I’m sure there are other brilliant sites that do something different. So I decided to look at some big sites and do an informal tally.
Of course, even deciding what to sample is a big problem, so I decided to start with with a top-25 list of blogs from ebismba, which was a top Google hit for “top blogs” and then just hit a few others that I though were noteworthy because they focus on design.
Huffington Post: three content panes
This is what I call the modern style of content display, where you don’t really have a pure division of content between a main area and a sidebar, but rather use multiple main content areas–usually with some doing more text and some doing more video, etc.
TMZ: single sidebar on right
Engadget: single sidebar on right
Gizmodo: top and left nav
Mashable: single sidebar on right
Techcrunch: single sidebar on right
Gawker: top and left nav
Lifehacker: top and left nav
BoingBoing: right nav
Daring Fireball: left nav
Daily Koz: two right sidebars
Meh, I’m not really getting much out of this it seems. The one thing I can kind of see is that pure nav on the left is pretty rare, so I guess that’s something. ::
1 I’ve always found left sidebars to be really intuitive because you first pick what you want to do then you do it–>flowing left to right. But at the same time it also seems logical to give people content first if they come directly to an article of yours, with navigation to the right of that.
Our new trash can, after many hours of research.

We’re thinking about getting one of these as our coffee table…
