Greetings to all! I have noticed that many sites utilize inconsistent label terminology for links allowing a user to enter/exit an online account (be it an e-commerce site, e-mail system, etc.).
I would expect that since these labels describe an action initiated by the user (rather than a state), verbs and not nouns must be used: Log In/Log Out, not Login/Logout. However, often I see the following combination: Login (noun used to enter) and Log Out (verb used to exit). In your opinion, what do you think is the best label combination and why? ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
