In the beginning of my web experience, they said that content was the key feature. I thought they were wrong. I wanted more. More goods to buy. Now, I realize that they were right.
Content is the key.
Sure, the whiz bang stuff was nice for awhile. But I reached a point where I wanted information again. And I wanted it in a clear, concise format, that was easy to digest and easy to find. Which is why I try to design web sites that work for all platforms and browsers, and work well with modems. Because I know that somewhere, there is someone out there just like me that wants access to the information too.
