schema:description"This book shows how to build large-scale and maintainable web sites that are appealing and easy to navigate. With topics that range from aesthetics to mechanics, "Information Architecture for the World Wide Web" explains how to create interfaces that users can understand right away. With an overview of information architecture for both newcomers and experienced practitioners, and the fundamental components of an architecture, illustrating the interconnected nature of these systems. This edition discusses blueprints, wireframes and the role of diagrams in the design phase. Includes tools, techniques, and methods for tagging, folksonomies, social classification, and guided navigation. A series of short essays provide tips and philosophical advice for those who work on information architecture; the business context of practicing and promoting information architecture, including recent lessons on how to handle enterprise architecture; and case studies on the evolution of two large and very different information architectures, illustrating best practices along the way.--From publisher's description."
