Our websites have become more functionally rich, thanks to Ajax, Flash, Flex and the like. But our documentation hasn't kept up. We need rich documentation to match the rich experiences we're now able to provide online. In this discussion, we'll explore what wireframes can still do, plus new forms of documenting including lo-fi animations and state diagrams.

Dan Saffer is a Senior Interaction Designer at Adaptive Path (http://www.adaptivepath.com/). Dan's book, Designing for Interaction, has been called a "fresh, accessible and thoughtful guide to interaction design" (Richard Grefe, Executive Director, AIGA) and "a bookshelf must-have for anyone thinking of creating new designs" (Jared Spool, CEO of UIE). He served as the senior interaction designer for Ameritrade, the top online brokerage. He led the initial redesign of the Ameritrade site, focusing its features and functionality on active traders.
