Special Pages, Tricks And Tests

1. Design Criteria - (1) Simplicity - 3 words, not 300... common-speak, not acronyms, abbreviations, and flashing, falsetto bold, (2) loading speed - white space, low-res graphics linked to hi-res, PDF's or video and (3) 7-second test - if you can't find the information your looking for in 7 seconds then the page is a failure. Design a web page... not an Eiffel Tower.

2. Proof - The current, champion cash-cow and design model is the Google^™ homepage. How many examples of flashing text, mouse-over gambits, Flash^™ videos and roll-overs can you find on this worldwide, industry-leader's page? Why?
