Kelly Goto at the How Design Conference

This past weekend I was at the How magazine Design Conference. I had the opportunity to listen to Kelly Goto of GotoMedia talk about web design and the business side of the web. He talk was very inspiring and helpful. I also got a copy of her new book web site redesign version 2.0. She is truely focused about useability and how to improve the web for everyone. One aspect of the web that she sees as continueing to grow is blogging. She sees this as being used not just in the teenager world and personal world. Corporations are beginning to use blogs to get their messages out. This gives them a way to get the true facts out as well as they can do customer and user surveys very quickly by being able to allow visitors to their blog to comment on what they read. I think that it will be interesting to see what happens in the future.
