Gone in a Flash: Why E-Com firms are in flat line mode

Over the past 25 years, I have worked in a special field of research known generally as "usability engineering." This relatively new science is focused on determining in objective terms why products, systems and, most recently, web sites are confusing and difficult to learn and use. Over the past 5 years, I have often been retained to conduct independent evaluations of web sites designed by many of the "e-commerce" development firms whose stock prices, even by current market valuations, have gone into "flat line mode." There is more to this fall than meets the eye.
