Critique of Web designs
At the Seybold San Francisco '95 conference, held Sept. 26-29, a two-hour session was held critiquing Web sites. The participants: Rosalind Resnick, Jonathan Seybold (the conference's founder) and David M. Cole.
Here is the Seybold organization's description of the session:
Some of the stuff we see on the Web is great -- some others ... well, we shouldn't forget that the Web is a playground where almost anyone can participate. So what's hot, and what's not, on the Web? Our very own "Siskel and Ebert" duo, Cole and Resnick, will provide us with an armchair critique of the Web publications they've surfed over the past few months and vote thumbs-up or "get-it-outta-here!" This is one session anyone interested in advancing the art of Web publication design won't want to miss.
