Came across what I think is a really informative article on Smashing Magazine that talks about effective web design. It's a good resource because it outlines basic but really good tips to improve the usability and intuitiveness of any web design.

The above image illustrates the viewing patterns of a typical web-surfer. Interesting to note how the eye scans information. The article goes on to cover off the KIS principle, the benefits of effective copywriting for an online audience, and the use of design conventions.

Smallbox is interested in compiling a list of web design resources, so if you come across something interesting, send it our way. Send it to .
