    It's completely useless designing a site a client that doesn't know exactly how and what they are using the site for. I think webdesign has a lot to do with designing the content, rather than the technology used for it. 'We want it in flash', 'We want a site like this' etc.

    Some of the best websites are super-simple, but the content is put in all the right boxes, which makes the message/content original and clear.

    My approach to webdesign, when dealing with a client, is to demand that they think again about what they really want to tell and how that can be communicated in new and original ways.
    Pen and paper. It saves so much time when it comes to the actual development.
