Web Design On A Shoestring by Carrie BicknerNow this sounds interesting. Jeffrey Zeldman has linked to Carrie Bickner and the fact that she’s got a new book coming out. It is called Web Design On A Shoestring.

I wonder whether or not the principles covered in the book also apply to small business sites and weblogs. The concept is terrific. I spoke with a small business owner last week who had spent $200,000 for a web site that never became operational. He then spent $50,000 with another designer/developer who had the site operational in less than 60 days. Today, he believes everything he got could be built from concept to ”go live” for $5,000.

I suspect he’s right.
