This quote really caught me, and we thought it might be fun to write a pair of blog posts about our thoughts on this topic--so here's my take.
July 8, 2010 at 12:10 am  Many agencies try to communicate with their clients about what kind of website they are planning to build using absolutely any means possible other than the web.
