Fitts's Law: Why the Menu Bar Sits at the Top
Original: Fitts's law: why the menu bar is at the top
A new blog post explains Fitts's law, the human-computer interaction principle that predicts how quickly users can point at targets, and uses it to explain why the menu bar is placed at the top of the screen. Edges and corners act as infinitely wide targets, making them faster to hit.
Why now: Design and engineering communities regularly revisit classic interface principles when someone offers a fresh, accessible explanation.
