Bad Ergonomics: The (In)Famous Palm Beach County Ballot
Submitted by Heino Widdel
Editor's Comments:
More proof that the term "ergonomic" must not be equated merely with design that is friendly to the touch. Far more is involved, in particular the sense of sight. Ergonomics is important. Unfortunately the general public seldom pays any attention to ergonomics until problems such as this create utter chaos. The Florida ballot fiasco was an object lesson in the importance of ergonomic design that should not be forgotten simply because election fever has passed.
