What is good usability?

It’s all too easy for someone who follows Web Standards to blab on about good usability and I’m often asked what is usability?
Hopefully this post, on Luke W’s Functioning Form website, will give an idea as to what is good usability. It highlights how simple good usability can be. It’s very often a case of basic common sense, but without someone pointing it out to you it may not be obvious. In short this post shows how having simple defaults in forms that we fill in on the internet will prevent those dumbass annoying errors - “you forgot to fill in this bit!”

That’s a good example of developers just throwing in form elements without thinking about it. I bet he / she will cringe when they notice what they’ve done.
