Wireframes, Only Wireframes

While desk doing desk crits during our last meeting, I was quite disappointed by the lack of large pieces of paper with evidence of your fruitful brainstorming and ideation process. There was much evidence of great ideas during our talks but I still pushed all of you on Wednesday to visualize your ideas physically, together, on paper. While developing your wireframes, that method will also serve you well, starting right out in Illustrator will stifle and slow you down.

Check out some good wireframing methods here on this aptly named blog, Wireframes:
