So ...

As I said earlier, the tabbed content is extremely useful and can be used almost everywhere ...

However, there are a few things you should keep in mind while implementing tabbed navigation:

• first you should outline the information architecture so you can make better tab-related decisions
• you should use short and predictable category names
• don't tab together categories that are not similar in nature (in a logical sense)
• the selected tab should be prominently marked to clearly indicate the current location
• avoid using multiple rows of (stacked) tabs!
• you should use and maintain a consistent tab order on each page, otherwise your information architecture could be confusing
• if is possible, avoid using multiple tabbed solutions with different number of tabs (within the same site)
• the tabbed content area should be logically connected to the "regular" content area it controls in order to make clear the scope of the tabs

And that's it my friends!
