Is the twitter engine missing the tracks, or just getting an early start on Memorial Day weekend?

Thoughts on the discoverability that Web sites can provide
Matthew, nice job on the solo podcast. I enjoyed the discussion on usability, trust and experience that a Web site can offer. It just feels right when you don’t notice what happens on the site as the design allows for a natural flow. Your thoughts on the discoverability that Web sites can provide was interesting; as a designer/developer, I focus so much on creating the site that once it goes live there is nothing left to discover. I seem to discover more from a site that I’ve created only by watching someone navigate and experience the site. It was refreshing to hear your view point from the user’s perspective.

Eat goodies rather than your words with a gripe bowl!
This week a co-worker and I figured out a way to deal with in-house clients that drive us bonkers. We created a ‘gripe bowl’ (using a fish blow). When we sense a rant coming on, we first drop some coin (or a buck) into the bowl. It makes us think a moment, before complaining. And, when the bowl count reaches 20 bucks, off to Trader Joes we go for some healthy snacks. I’d rather eat some goodies than my words (for lacking the skill in educating a client about the creative process).
