[IxDA Discuss] Users ability with slider controls

[cliff williams]

Our user testing has shown something similar to what Robert H.
mentions... most users did not interact with sliders on the page on
their own. A few didn't notice them. The ones who did understood
their relationship to the data but did not interact with them. Our
implementation was similar to Kayak's--a few sliders mixed with
other controls. When mixed with other interactive bits, the sliders
seemed to scan as a reporting element only--not an interactive one.

Not to hijack the thread, but (IMHO) Kayak's design is a big bucket
of hey-look-what-web2.0-can-do with a teaspoon of
users-should-be-able-to-use-this.
