That said, brevity and clarify are not always content goals. For instance, tight , clear language might not be appropriate for a site that publishes fiction or humor. Then, it's a matter of maintaining that interest level throughout the work. You have a section of your zine called, Contenders and Fluff , in which you offer your reader detailed insight into the makings, both good and bad, of a content-rich Web site. During your review , you also bring attention to the issues of usability.
Usability is a discrete discipline.
With regard to Web content, usability usually refers to how easy it is for the user to grasp the nature and extent of a site's content, and then how easy it is for users to explore, digest, and in some cases, interact with that content. If the main content of a site is, say, a searchable database or a product catalog, the usability considerations are fairly obvious. However, image and sound content also has usability issues. Even text-based content has significant usability issues. Copyediting text to improve tightness and clarity, while avoiding choppiness, is also a usability consideration.
