UX / UI
At the place I currently work, it was decided to introduce a new system for evaluations (which, in all fairness, seems to be working quite well).
A new in-house set of web forms was duly produced and clearly not given to average users to test.
The web form for recording these conversations (which is really what they are rather than the 'PDR' crap) had a bright rectangular piece of text on a contrasting background that gave no indication it might actually do anything (didn't highlight with a mouse over, cursor didn't change, no url in the status bar), but when I decided to check things out and click on said apparently inert object (the first conversations were the beta test effectively), I was whisked to a completely different page.
I had a bit of a vent about that one.
Rule 1: If a button can do something then make it clear with a visual clue.
