His book made a big impression on me back in the day. And, to be honest, I still prefer the minimal and predictible style of web site that he recommended.

Which book? There seem to be quite a few, and I wouldn’t mind picking one up, if you have one to recommend.
The one he mentions in the article: "Designing Web Usability".
Amusingly that book had very poor usability. I forget exactly what it was about it; possibly printing the text too close to the binding?

In practice I recall it being mostly a digest of his free content on useit.com

Yes, this was the one. I think it was my first exposure to UX - probably around 2000, 2001.
