task 3

Link to the website. http://www.facebook.com/ The website is very successful as many people all over the world use it. The principles of the website, are very simple. You create a page where, you can upload photo's and update your status, so your friends online can read what you are commenting, and posting 24/7. The website is created for people to keep in touch worldwide.

• Analysis of other similar websites

You need to find as many similar websites as possible. Create a link to the website, and then evaluate the success of the website. Think about the principles of good web design, and describe aspects of the site you like or dislike.
Also consider that you dont want your site to be to similar to a site that already exists!

• Subject Content

task 4

• Brief Refinement

After completing all of you research part 2, do you need to add any detail / make changes to your initial brief.

• Initial design ideas

Use paint, or sketch some ideas for the layout / colour / theme for how your website might look. Remember the rules of good website design.

Sketch at least three designs, and get feedback from your stakeholders, including preference of your ideas, and constructive comments you can use to make your designs better.

• Stakeholder feedback

1. Create a survey on your website idea, and find out what your stakeholders already know, or would like to know about your topic. See if you can create and online one that they can do, that will collate your results for you (try SurveyMonkey, or maybe an in-built gadget). You can survey more people if you think it would help.
2. Get feedback on your initial design ideas. Get your stakeholders to view your ideas, rank them from best to worst, and evaluate bits the like / don't like, as well as any improvements they suggest. Get your stakeholders to POST THEIR FEEDBACK AS A COMMENT on your blog so you have a copy of it, and then collate / summarise the results on your page. Be sure to comment on any alterations to your best design idea that you are going to make after stakeholder feedback.
