All Marketers Are Liars

There’s a new book coming out by Seth Godin entitled All Marketers Are Liars : The Power of Telling Authentic Stories in a Low-Trust World. Should be interesting. You can also follow along with Seth’s new blog for the book called Liar’s Blog.
Yes, the blog that will be marketing his book […]

Task Maps

YourTotalSite.com posted about a very interesting idea. They are talking about replacing a website’s site map with a task map. On the one hand, it goes against the usability of a site (aren’t people used to using a site map?). Then again, do most visitors care about a site map? If […]
