Now every browser gives you a facility of remembering username and password, so you do not need to login every time. It automatically does that. But before your username and password has been stored in your browser it asks you to remember it or not.

Just came across one small but very important thing (i think). Recently i opened my linkedIn, where i put my username and password and something like this popped up.

Now when i see this, i do not understand where i am.. means what is by default selected.. whether it is “never for this site “, “not now” or “remember”. And if i press enter without looking it, i do not know whether it is going to save my username and password or not. Then i discovered that by default it is “not now”.

Now question is, in interaction design point of view, aren’t we missing here something? Shouldn’t be “not now” highlighted by default? One thing i would like to point out is ” i do not know whether it is only with mac (as i use mac) or it is there for windows also.

What say?

  2. Very good point Keyur.

    In windows they always show 1st button as a default one. Which I think is very nice interaction feature.
