I sooooo agree.

Although I rarely, if ever click on the logo in gmail, I do believe in the "logo should be a link to the root" convention. Surely that's just UI design 101, right?

The twitter one you mentioned in the article drives me super crazy as well.



The thing that amuses me is it took me a while to find the equivalent of the keyboard shortcut "gh" (go home). I think I finally found if you expand the gmail logo and click gmail under that, it does what I wanted.

I am deeply grateful for the fact that they have not messed with the keyboard shortcuts yet.


Yeah, I consistently forget the fact that Twitter details link is there as well, even though I've had to look for it a few times.


Especially when it used to do it; this certainly caught me by surprise when they made the change.
