ArticleProspect Experience DesignInterview with Eric Holter on Website Prototyping by Christopher Butler on March 29, 2011Waaaaay back in 2001, Eric Holter, the founder of Newfangled, discovered a radical new approach to planning websites. Instead relying upon sitemaps and wireframes to communicate the website experience, he figured an interactive version might do the trick. It actually worked so well that he wrote a book about it describing the revolutionary effect it had on Newfangled's process. Because this month's newsletter is all about prototyping, I decided to sit down with Eric and hear the story of how it all got started ten years ago... Read Now About

ArticleWhy We Need to Learn How to Play by Christopher Butler on March 14, 2011 One of the most common things I hear from colleagues and clients is that while we're great at identifying goals, we lack the time to achieve them. But I'm now wondering whether the answering the question of when we're going to find time to do something is really the only thing between us and our goals?

ArticleCreating CRM Efficiencies for Imprivata.com by Katie Jamison on March 10, 2011 When it came time for Imprivata to rebuild their site, a top priority was to rearchitect their CRM integration to improve manageability for themselves and user experience for potential leads. Imprivata gathers new leads from their site by placing form registrations in front of premium assets like whitepapers, webinars, etc. With a resource library filled with hundreds of assets, dealing with these registrations forms had become unruly for the client. It was time to take a step back and reimagine a system that could free up the client to spend more time on content creation than managing its crm integration. Read Now About
