We are working on a web-application for business use. We are trying to make it very very simple as part of the the target group probably thinks that email is kind of complicated stuff.<p>We now have an internal discussion on how to design the menu. Some would like to have a traditional dropdown menu while others prefer the two-row approach (see http://tixclub.de/ or http://www.madvertise.de/ for examples)<p>Is there any evidence on which style users prefer? What is your personal experience?<p>Many thanks!
Both have too many invisible options, in my opinion. See Google's search page top bar for what I think is a good setup - most relevant options first, and a menu for more.<p>Also, is your nick an Alphaville reference?
