If you need to present ideas on a web site to others, this is your book. Covers the processes of creating web-related documents in a comprehensive manner. It's focused on the documents, but also lets you know how to approach them, what to watch out for, how they work with each other, and how they fit into the processes of developing and designing a website. It covers each document in a similar way and from a layered approach, rather than a 'always do it this way' style. It's easy to read, but there's a lot of insightful information to go over, so it's not an 'overnight' book. ( )

Intended to shepherd web developers through the process of working with clients. Lots of images showing how to document information flows and conceptual modeling of websites. Emphasizes usability testing, use of personas, blow by blows of how to have client meetings what to talk about when and so forth.

I started reading this book at 4 am because I woke up early. An excellent book on ensuring that I can show that I 'deliverable' something at work. Plenty of documents that I can use to explain my conceptual thoughts at work. ( )

This is a practical book with a clear focus: creating design documentation. Brown covers ten design deliverables in detail, including sitemaps, flowcharts, wireframes, and screen designs. This is a very hands-on book that goes into great detail of creating design deliverables with many good examples. It’s highly recommended. ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0321392353, Paperback)

Most discussion about Web design seems to focus on the creative process, yet turning concept into reality requires a strong set of deliverables—the documentation (concept model, site maps, usability reports, and more) that serves as the primary communication tool between designers and customers. Here at last is a guide devoted to just that topic. Combining quick tips for improving deliverables with in-depth discussions of presentation and risk mitigation techniques, author Dan Brown shows you how to make the documentation you're required to provide into the most efficient communications tool possible. He begins with an introductory section about deliverables and their place in the overall process, and then delves into to the different types of deliverables. From usability reports to project plans, content maps, flow charts, wireframes, site maps, and more, each chapter includes a contents checklist, presentation strategy, maintenance strategy, a description of the development process and the deliverable's impact on the project, and more.
