Forms, forms, forms

May 9th, 2008

FPO image of a bookIf you’re an Information Architect like me, then you probably love the idea of creating wireframes and designing forms. Lots of thought goes into designing forms. From usability of the layout to the labels on the form fields, seems not two forms end up the same.

Now there’s some help. Web Form Design by Luke Wroblewski is now available. The book was published by Rosenfeld Media. The book contains 244 pages (softcopy) of fill in the form goodness.

So, if you plan on designing lots of forms, and hey who doesn’t, then pick up this handy guide. Your users will thank you.

    Been looking forward to this one for a while. Would be especially helpful if all the purely creative folk in the industry would read it too. I’d like to spend less time worrying about how to get a form field to have a rounded corner and more time thinking ‘how can I build a form that is not too much hassle for a user to fill out?’. You might want to keep this book in your bag or else I might come swipe it off your desk.
