Earlier this month, many of us were in a satelite city for a wedding banquet. With the invitation card (which had a map imprinted), I went to that small city and got lost in one hour later. I could apply the same lesson to a web site, you will easily get lost even your web site has a site map. What matters is how to make your web site with a sense of orientation, users know how to go back and forth with your navigation design, visual cues, content group etc.

Same to launching a new product, have you ever wonder whether someone really understand the requirements, and also how to design, test and operate ? Check out the attached picture and you know what I mean.
