Over at Grasping Reality: : A Now-Extended Non-Sokratic Dialogue on Webite Design: What I, at least, regard as an interesting discussion in the comments to my A Very Brief Sokratic Dialogue on Website Redesign….

Platon: Five requirements?

Sokrates: Yes….

The front-end… to give each piece of content a visually-engaging and subhead-teaser informative welcome mat…. The syndication… to propagate the front-end cards out to Twitter and Facebook…. The stock… a pathway… by which people can pull things written in the past… relevant… to their concerns today…. The grammar: The visually-interesting and subhead-teaser front-end… needs to lead the people who would want to and enjoy engaging with the content to actually do so…. [But,] as William Goldman says, nobody knows anything.

Platon: Is there anybody whose degree of not-knowingness is even slightly less than the degree of not-knowingness of the rest of us?…
