Photojojo in A List Apart!

Logo-250px-whitebg.gifDerek Powazek wrote a great article for A List Apart on the importance of good writing when designing user interface. He uses Flickr and Photojojo as examples of sites that get it!

On Photojojo:

No marketing BS, just two people who are really excited about what they’re doing.

Now, I’m the kinda guy who unsubscribed from every email list I was on in 1999 and never looked back. I hate email. If the site had used traditional language, I never would have signed up. But their excitement was contagious, and before I knew it, I was plunking down my address.

Incredibly flattering to be praised in A List Apart, and doubly so when the author is Derek!

That’s some great earned media. It does help that the site has a great design, too.

In other news, that Goethe quotation you had up a few weeks back continues to inspire a whole heck of a lot.
