Just to pickup on the prototyping discussion, I have pulled my hair out about this for over 3 years. The key to prototyping is to allow very quick changing of ideas to match the GOALS of the user. If you code it you start pouring concrete and immediately start building walls to further innovation. The more effort a coder invests in developing the prototype the more resistent to changes the mind automatically becomes. I finally settle on a simple Google doc with hand drawing of the screen with implementation notes at the bottom. Its not perfect but it does allow collaboration with google docs and it doesn't have a whole technical knowledge thing to breakdown.
Below I have included an example of a screen I am developing for an applicaiton: (The square brackets are buttons and dropdowns) The Marketing Manager Main Page ------------------------------ * [Add a Campaign] [Select an Action[v]]**- (1 to 2 of 15) Campaigns * *Select* *Title * *Information * *Responses* * ( )* *Messages to Prospective Students for Hort 2 Course prior to them signing up* (4) Messages, Horticulture, Agri Learning Category, Followup, Modified Yesterday, By Me The Information section is a combo of a number of fields of information.
