Leo Robert Ford: Web Design and Sin

"When we go to a web guru we don't want to hear that the world is complicated and full of contradictions, we want to hear what it takes to make our web site a success, and if it takes ten steps instead of ten thousand, so much the better. Thus we naturally gravitate to those with a simpler message, if for no better reason than we are beginners and looking for a place to start."

Funny thing, that. I had a conversation today about the difference between following rules and engaging with a friend today that was very similar to the last paragraph of Ford's essay.
