Hi!

Recently someone send me this link to an eclipse plugin
http://www.hlsoft.com/clickclosestab_eclipse which has a link to another
page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitts%27_law describing describing a
human-computer interaction law. According the article this law can be used
to make a better user expirience interacting with a UI.

Can anybody tell me any book/site/etc about user interface usability?? I
would like to know more about this subject in general, and what and how
they are applied in Eclipse.

This quiestion is to know how to design my user interfaces in any
application, and specially on an eclipse RCP/pluguin.

Thanks in advance!!!
Claudio
