spotback.com — Don?t Click It is an experiment in human interface design. It is a strange one. You are allowed one click to start off the interface, and from then on as you use the mouse to grok the interface, you are warned not to click.

So what? They were old stories and they never hit the frontpage, I thought it would be interesting for everyone to see it.

Digg's getting old!

Marked as lame for linking to blogspam, thereby preventing the use of diggmirror.

God forbid those of us who joined Digg in the last 550 days should be able to enjoy it. In my opinion anything that hasn't been submitted in over a year should be fair game.

Interesting site, but there's a reason clicking on things has become habit: it's a much better interface option than mouseover.If I mouseover something, you're not sure whether I wanted to select it or not. If I click it, however, there isn't any question. Sure, people can click the wrong thing, but the design of that kind of interface isn't bad, it's just how people use it. A mouseover interface is bad by design.
