Today’s Tip:
Make sure when a user clicks on something the appropriate amount of feedback gets displayed so their attention can be moved to the necessary area. In this case a menu updated content on the page but if the user was not paying attention the style of the information is exactly the same as the current content. If it highlighted the background and then faded away it would bring the users attention to the new content on the page.
