HARTLAND TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Here’s Trina M.’s submission:
“I've been reading “What Web designers can learn from publication design.” I found it made some good points about design and content:
1) Web and publication design should share a rigid design template that determines the look and feel of the content.
2) Great publication design allows the designers to find creativity and flexibility within the template system.
I've have been using some of these ideas in addition to those covered in the text for our assignment to evaluate web publications.”

This article raises an issue I've often wondered about: Publication design has evolved to greater and greater heights over the past 20 years, but Web design for many news sites often seems to be stuck in a time warp and reminds me of newspapers at the beginning of the 20th century. Those publications would try to fit as many headlines on the front page as possible. I think this article is smart in saying let's not reinvent the wheel here.
