I sound like such an old woman, but when I was growing up, no-one I knew wanted to be models or pop stars or just be "famous".&lt;br&gt;

But I think the two should be balanced, or all our websites would look like Jakob Nielsen's.</description><link>http://carpediem.blog.co.uk/2007/05/22/shoes~2314948/#c3611477</link><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2007 13:19:07 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>In response to:Shoes.</title><description>oh I dont know I see usability testing as a much underated creative skill.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
change one line in requirements at that stage can lead to time and money costs being far smaller at a later stage.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
not enough testing in the early stages (i.e inception) is performed.</description><link>http://carpediem.blog.co.uk/2007/05/22/shoes~2314948/#c3611451</link><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2007 13:15:22 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>In response to:Shoes.</title><description>Ahh, we're probably not too far apart on that then, I generally use XHTML/CSS for everything, loads quicker, displays across devices, etc, but Flash is useful for somethings.&lt;br&gt;
 &lt;br&gt;
And usability testers are the devil!</description><link>http://carpediem.blog.co.uk/2007/05/22/shoes~2314948/#c3611392</link><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2007 13:07:21 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>In response to:Shoes.</title><description>nope I leave that to Usability testers.&lt;br&gt;

I just dont see the point in flash overuse.&lt;br&gt;

Nice.  I've never used much Oracle as we just use mySQL at work, but they all say it's great.  XML is really good, I wish I did more work that used XML, it still doesn't seem to be as widely used as it should be for the possibilities it offers.</description><link>http://carpediem.blog.co.uk/2007/05/18/mandatory_guess_what_i_m_still_alive_aft~2291478/#c3595781</link><pubDate>Tue, 22 May 2007 16:37:30 +0200</pubDate></item><item><title>In response to:Mandatory, Guess what, I'm still alive after all post...</title><description>HELLOOOOOOOOOOO!!  &lt;br&gt;
