    Thanks for putting together this resource, it really helps with finding my way around the site and a number of articles I’d missed. Some of the links aren’t working, though.. thought I’d let you know : )

    Great post Galba, and interestingly I’ve seen images of these tools and qualities in your EQ applications and designs as well.

    I’d love to hear more about your being motivated by working in a creative space where you can express innovation and where people achieve outstanding results.

    Any examples? I’d love to see a guest bog here - or one at my site - or both, with the specific examples.

    It could be titled… “Creative spaces - which foster personal expression and enable amazing results.”

    What do you think?

    All fixed, Galba…. and I’m glad, because there’s some good stuff in here :)

    As for site navigation” when working on a client’s pages, I sit down and create a flow chart/map of the articles/info, based on categories, series, essential info, etc. The right navigational flow usually shows up pretty clearly that way. Does that help any? (and No, I haven’t done that with MindTweaks yet!)

    and Ellen, I love the idea of a “Creative Spaces” post!

    Hello MT:

    Thanks for taking the time to tell me about the problem in the first instance. Your points about navigation were helpful. What its thrown up for me is that as well as the larger issues of navigation, there are also micro issues, which is where part of the EQ 101 tagged series comes from. On not implementing your own recommendations, it’s well known that the cobblers shoes are never mended :)
