This one’s a bit of a usability design in-joke.

I’ve made a WordPress theme based on the site design of web usability expert Dr. Jakob Nielsen. For those who don’t know, Jakob’s success and committed following have shielded him from the last 10 or so years of developments in web design. His site is a time-machine to 1995, and while perfectly accessible has attracted some justifiable criticism for its nauseating design.

Creating the Jakobian WordPress theme was actually a fun exercise - it’s not every day that you get to go under the hood of such an ancient site.

If for some reason you actually want to use Jakobian, you can download it here.
