Usability of web pages

A reader just pointed out the he absolutely agrees with my rants about bad web applications.However, I published this rant on a page that uses a fixed layout and a fixed font size, thereby affecting usability as well.

He's right. Guilty as charged.

My problem is, that I'm a software developer, therefore I've been somehow more affected by development bugs than by design bugs. I simply didn't think too much about usability of web pages with fixed layouts and fixed fonts (which is especially bad in my case as in a former life, I've been surfing the web at 1600x1200 with fonts set to "very small").

Thanks for pointing this out to me. It should be better now. That is, if I didn't screw it up altogether ;-)
