The Elements of User Experience: User-Centered Design for the Web

If you are someone interested in hiring a designer or team to create/improve/reimagine your web presence, you owe it to yourself to know what the term "user experience" means. Sure, it means, basically, "how the user sees what is on the screen", but it's really a whole lot more involved than that.

I would recommend to anyone who touches a website project (from designers, to writers, to illustrators, to programmers, to clients) the book I'm reading now: The Elements of User Experience: User-Centered Design for the Web by Jesse James Garrett. Good info that you can go back to time and again for reference or additional understanding of underlying concepts. The diagram here is by Garrett (a snippet of a larger whole, which can be downloaded from his book's site) and is the basis for the idea that spawned the book. Check it out, and if you are intrigues in the least by what is there, buy the book. You won't be disappointed.
