Week 1 Reading Response- FINALLY

Week 1 READ:

Intro, Chapter 1 and 2

     basically what I understand, its teaching us younger designers to create sample designs. Its not "rocket surgery" has Steve Krug's to build a site or is there is a wrong way in building one too. Most people are not able to afford to hire web consultants, they look for someone that will fit their budget. There is alot of web designers that don't have no commens since to build it simple. My opinnion most of the time it is the client.

Do not bad mounth poorly design sites, because you can learn what "not" do with a poorly design. Most of these book is about e-commerce site, but with this tools you can use for any kind of a site.

Chapter 1:
     Is not make me think to hard about what I am looking for onto a site. Which I agree with this chapter, if I am looking for something, I want to go straight to the "link" and not search for it. I notice the logo, look for the menu choises, and images and such. Also I look at the site if it is easy to look at and not OMG!! get me off of this site now! So chapter 1, is something I already do. I was going to show you the first site I saw that I went OMG! too.. http://freighthousesquare.com/index.html but it looks like someone finally got around in made it better.

Chapter 2:
     Not everyone views a website differently, in order to design a web page are three facts to you. We don't read pages, we scan them. We are always in a hurry, and most don't read a site at all. We look for key words and if we don't find it, we look else where. We know we don't have to read everything too, and then lastly we are good a scanning. We can newspapers, magazine and other things helps us figure out if we are interested in reading more of it.
