The Big Web Show: Design That’s Fast and Design That’s Slow

I was back on the Big Web Show with Jeffrey Zeldman earlier this month, talking about designing the news in an age when the media is under constant attack.

We also discussed an approach to story design that’s more like product design and less like traditional layout work. That is, treating individual news stories as discrete products, each with a set of goals beyond simply getting the user to read them. That part of the conversation spawned a separate post from Jeffrey, discussing the need for both “design that is faster and design that is slower.”

Give it a listen.
