Yep. Overproduced... underengineered, and definitely undertested.
That's what you get for letting creative do your web site design.
Creative needs to be a resource to the techies that actually make things
work or you get high sizzle and no steak.
I do this for a living. If anyone happens to disagree, let's take it up
in .publish
(a good website requires 4 kinds of skills...
cognitive - understand how people think about stuff to make navigation
easy and intuitive, make the site consistent and match how people want
to carry out tasks.
business - to help drive WHY you have a site, help measure whether it is
effective, and help tie into the rest of the organization.
technical - to make it work.
creative - to make it look pretty.
Leave out any, overemphasise any and you have a failure... As a techie,
I tend to innately undervalue creative but I know there is SOME value to
it. TLG let creative wag the whole dog.
