A site redesign or switch to a new platform is kind of like a rebirth — it’s one of the most exciting and nerve-wracking times for the entire Internet marketing team. With everyone caught up in the branding, design, usability and technology, the impact on search engine optimization can sometimes be forgotten until the last minute. (Read the full article here).

I’ve recently signed up to facebook.com and I thought I’d write a quick review from a Design and Usability perspective. So quickly:
Pros
1. Fast and easy to setup an account.
2. From a usability perspective I was able to find everything in a relative amount of time.
3. Applications are fun! Unlike MySpace.com, facebook.com organizes applications in a user friendly way.
Cons
1. Some applications are very limiting - mainly audio I have found. I would like them to integrate with iTunes preferably.
2. You do not have a unique URL, but that could also be a Pro depending on how you look at it. Now that I think about it, it’s probably a good idea not to have a specific URL because facebook.com IS a social networking site, not just a free hosting provider for personal webpages.
3. Hmmm…can’t think of a third one at the moment.
So, do you have a facebook page? If you do then share your comments! What do you like and think needs some improvement?
Cheers!

Are there any MySpace.com websites that have been well designed and are usable? Yes, somewhere out there - but where??
So many of the MySpace websites are poorly designed and have multiple usability issues, however the fact is that many people use it, regardless! Most of those people are in the younger market with no real sense of usability nor design. If it looks cool, then add it! Found another neat gizmo, add that too!
Well I’m very happy to report that I did happen to find a website by a Mr. Mike D (no not the Mike D. from the Beastie Boys, ha-ha). His website has been well designed - clean and simple. Check it out at http://www.myspace.com/mikeindustries
So, what do you think? Do you have a MySpace.com account? Let’s review it!
