Simeon Says

I personally love the feel of a paper napkin plan. I think this is the best way to demonstrate and idea and not have the client want to jump forward thinking this is some kind of working product. The problem for me is that once down on paper i can’t move things around. So i step up to some kind of prototyping tool, but I just never feel like this expresses the same sentiment that the napkin print does.

So I was really excited when I saw this post today:

Ruby, Rails, Web2.0 » Blog Archive » Getting Real with Balsamiq – Amazing Mockups in a Breeze!.

Balsamiq mockups appears to allow me to keep that napkin look and feel while still creating fun and expressive mockups. With this I think I can get my ideas apart but still keep that fun “new idea” feeling flowing to the client.
