Caso Flashy Flashers Inc. Solution
If anything I have clear graphical environments is that graphical environments used to graphically display when a user is lost and does not know where to walking.
A test that is what I call "the dance of the hummingbird," referring to the mouse movement that draws the user looking for but not found. this morning, during a screening test in which they were assessing the computer skills of the candidates, one of them goes and asks me
- Sorry ... is ... I can not open Word, I can not find.
The trouble is that this "story" is too current. The trouble is that less skilled users persist in to use the mouse as if it was more like a hummingbird, and are giving little spin menu in the menu, here and there, trying to find what they seek. The trouble is that nobody teaches them, or they do not learn, how not to lose a minute and a half to do something that takes 3 seconds. With how easy it is to call things by their name!

I'm bored of saying it myself, but I'll say it again more ... One of the biggest profits of the mouse is that you can distinguish bird's eye view of an expert user in a beginner's office: while it just release the mouse, it just picks it up, and, consequently, while he works slowly, it does with efficiency.
