UX thought leader and speaker Stephen Anderson weighs in on whether you should focus on wireframes or push forward with high fidelity, interactive prototypes early on. I like his use of internalising over skipping: I think there’s a difference between skipping a phase versus internalizing a phase.

Persuasion Triggers in Web Design - Smashing Magazine
How do you make decisions? If you’re like most people, you’ll probably answer that you pride yourself on weighing the pros and cons of a situation carefully and then make a decision based on logic. You know that other people have weak personalities and are easily swayed by their emotions, but this rarely happens to you.Flux 3 for all your online design?
The first time I laid eyes on Flux I was literally enchanted with a product that even then finally could potentially measure up to Dreamweaver. When I saw Flux 2 I knew the developers were going to try very hard to make that happen, and with each update (there were quite a few) of Flux 2, the product closed in on Dreamweaver — you could almost see the evolution unfold in front of your eyes. With Flux 3 The Escapers have again raised the bar. Adobe won’t mind; they have been doing their best to turn Dreamweaver into a strange amalgam of features of which some make you scratch your head, while others are truly useful and innovative. They should mind, though, as Flux 3 is not an amalgam.

Making the Switch from Coda to Espresso
[tweetmeme] During the last of our IM discussions related to the theme upgrade, I told Preshit that I worked my bit of the upgrade entirely using MacRabbit’s Espresso . He was surprised, to say the least. Everyone knows me as a Coda fanboy, so did I ditch it just like that? I’ve always seen Espresso as sort of the underpowered in comparison with Coda. Coda is feature rich, has a splendid user interface, so why switch to something sub-standard? Lately though Coda has been showing its age, especially improvements in the world of HTML and CSS, and its user interface felt a little too heavy, given the current trend towards minimalism.
