User Interface design books/resources for programmers [closed]

Question

I'm going to make my monthly trip to the bookstore soon and I'm kind of interested in learning some user interface and/or design stuff - mostly web related, what are some good books I should look at? One that I've seen come up frequently in the past is Don't Make Me Think, which looks promising.

I'm aware of the fact that programmers often don't make great designers, and as such this is more of a potential hobby thing than a move to be a professional designer.

I'm also looking for any good web resources on this topic. I subscribed to Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox newsletter, for instance, although it seems to come only once a month or so.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Don't Make Me Think is the one!

Also check out Steve Krug's website for tips and sample forms for usability testing.

Answer 2

The design of everyday things ? An "old" classic, but useful if you plan anything that requires human interaction.
