Web Design: Some Best Practices
piepmatzel.de has collected an (almost) comprehensive list of sites devoted to web design. Thanks to angiemckaig.com for the link.
Often "usability" is associated with good web design, and the (contested) guru of this world is Jakob Nielson. But there are alternatives. (There's an obvious design difference going on with these two sites...) And its refreshing to read words like "beauty" and "sublime" when talking about web design. From V-2's article:
"The result of thinking (and feeling) deeply about web design is a site that absolutely fulfills the informational needs of its users, but that evokes in them the feeling that they are more aware, better informed, maybe even a little hipper than they were before they came across it. The problem with the Jakob Nielsen approach is that a site designed solely from the perspective of usability is useless from the perspective of emotion."
