---- WHAT'S NEW WITH OUR PARTNERS ----



-- IASLASH -- http://www.iaslash.org

Some good links that have been posted to IAslash in the
past few weeks:

The scalability of findability - can IA move beyond web
sites?
--> http://iaslash.org/node/view/7524

Social Circles: Mailing list social visualization
(This is *really* neat)

-- BOXES AND ARROWS -- http://www.boxesandarrows.com/

Two good recent articles in the January issue:

1) "Personalization is not Technology: Using Web
Personalization to Promote your Business Goal" -
Personalization, properly implemented, brings focus to
your message and delivers an experience that is
visitor-oriented, quick to inform, and relevant.
Personalization, poorly implemented, complicates the
user experience and orphans content. This article
describes what separates the freshness from the noise.

2) "Designing for Limited Resources" -
When resources are limited, the design must be
optimized to make the best use of all resources. To
account for this complexity, it is important to have a
clear understanding of both sides of the design
equation—what you have to work with and what you are
trying to build.
