What website is Aunt Tillie really on? 04/09/2004 03:56 PM

Last Friday I visted CoreStreet, a company whose ingenious approaches to large-scale credential validation and physical security I mentioned in my Permissions on the edge column last fall. While I was there, CoreStreet's president, Phil Libin, who blogs at vastlyimportant.com, showed me a neat gizmo intended to help Aunt Tillie understand where she's really going on the web. Consider this screenshot: ...

Aunt Tillie's OS X adventure


Aunt Tillie's OS X adventure 03/06/2004 01:57 AM
In a pair of recent essays< /a>, Eric Raymond tears into the open source community -- rightly so -- for its failure to deliver software that Aunt Tillie can use. He's spot on. One of his comments got me wondering, though:
If the designers were half-smart about UI issues (like, say, Windows programmers) they'd probe the local network neighborhood and omit the impossible entries. If they were really smart (like, say, Mac programmers) they'd leave the impossible choices in but gray them out, signifying that if your system were configured a bit differently you really could print on a Windows machine, assuming you were unfortunate enough to own one. [Eric Raymond: An Open-Source Horror Story]
As it happens, I'd never tried printing to a Windows XP queue on my home network from my Mac, and I wondered how well those Mac programmers Eric talks about handled that case. So here, for your Flash viewing pleasure, is Aunt Tillie's OS X Adventure. ...

Whose Website Is It, Anyway?


Whose Website Is It, Anyway? 09/07/2004 12:34 PM

Glitzy graphics showcasing this year's latest technological developments, surveys and questionnaires supported by product literature designed to help prospects select the models that best fit their needs or technical support FAQs and repair diagrams that facilitate self-repair and minimize the number of request for telephone and onsite technical service: which of these services is the focus of the company's website? Maybe, all three?

Earlier this year, Jupiter Research, a division of Jupitermedia Corporation, reported, "Often there is neither an incentive for [business] units to work together to accommodate each other's objectives, nor a governance mechanism to maximize the overall value of the Web site as a corporate asset." "The Web [site] represents a confluence among different part so the company," Says David Schatsky, Jupiter Research senior vice president and the author of the report.

One of my graduate business students is a senior at a well-known international travel services company. He is responsible for the proper handling of millions of dollars in corporate travel arrangements each year. During an e-business management class this year he described the company's plan to incorporate a marketing effort designed to develop personal travel management services into the same website that currently serves only corporate clients. The chance for success in the new effort seems slight, at best, and the opportunity for incurring damage to the company's primary niche is amply clear. So, why would a team of experienced marketers make such an obvious blunder?

The answer is more obvious than you may imagine.

When departments compete for clients' attention, the overall corporate message can become muddled. Multiple, sometimes competing, messages are presented via single website that confuses the clients and creates an improper public image for the organization. Worse, clients may leave (both the website and corporate account) and encourage others to do the same.

Companies must be clear, from the outset, about the goal and expected outcome of the website. It is vital that clarity and buy-in from all stakeholders is created at each of the three major phases of website development: conception, design, and rollout. Senior leadership must participate in or delegate full authority to representatives who participate in the concept development and formative design processes. Cross-departmental coordination, focusing on fundamental needs and expectations, is most likely to ensure a final website product that, rather than seeming a Rube Goldberg invention, is actually a clearly-presented and crisp display of information that becomes a properly functioning business tool and creates significant return on investment.

The Little Website that Couldn't


The Little Website that Couldn't 09/21/2004 03:01 AM
There once was a boy who for no apparent reason went around knifing his classmates. This boy's parents took him to nearly every mental health professional with no success... until one day a famous hypnotist came to town. There was a long line to speak to him, and as they waited medical doctors hovered around them trying to convince them it was all quackery. But the parents, figuring they had nothing to lose, continued standing in line with their disturbed son. At long last they told the doctor about their son's twisted history, and after a long pause the doctor looked the boy square in the eye and said, "My, won't you be surprised when you never do anything like this again."

Oliver Wendell Jones writes "In Japan, they are now looking at blaming the regular use of the internet for the recent death of a student, slain by another student, reportedly for retaliation for the victim saying bad things about the attacker's wardrobe on her website." When you can't blame someone else, I guess you have to look for something else to blame. Personal responsibility is so last millennium.
