Data that will be published for example by pulling in likes, shares and comments posted on Twitter here in my blog, as 'reactions' alongside with 'real'…
The Illusion of Control in Web Design - Aaron Gustafson
Recognizing all of the ways our carefully-crafted experiences can be rendered unusable can be more than a little disheartening. No one likes to spend their time thinking about failure. So don’t.

Matthias Ott: Saving your web workflows with prototyping
Oh, Matthias did it again: Publishing one of his thorough articles on the challenges of designing/working with "the web".
