Name that Web Page
November 15th, 2006
I’m a sucker for a game. In fact, I have always been sad that I was born to late to take my turn to appear on “Name That Tune.”
So I was amused to run across the Name that Page Web Design Game on About.com from Jennifer Kyrnin.
Granted it might not be the most exciting game you’ve ever played, but I think Jennifer makes a valid point in her blog post on this game. One of the keys to designing great webpages and websites is knowing the purpose for each page and the common elements that must be included on pages with that same purpose.
Does each of your pages have a distinct purpose in mind?

No, it’s not the most exciting game in the world, but I do like to “play” it whenever I come to a site I’ve never seen before. “What’s the point here?” I ask myself. Often followed closely by “Why do I care?”
Actually, the second question usually comes on the heels of my mouse moving towards the back button…
I’m completely with you Jennifer! Something that I think I’ll implement when reviewing each page I design.
