Most of new web designers and web developers think they can simply open up Dreamweaver and start coding CSS and HTML. The moment you start coding without planning, basically you are making sure that your design looks unprofessional. You should know how to use these tools and yes you should be quick in using shortcuts and any other enhanced features to get yourself organised and get your design or website rolling in less time however success depends on a lot more factors. Most important of those factors is planning. Planning is most of the time more than 80 percent of work.
Planning:
I have included a couple of videos emphasising on importance of planning here. These are not kind of moral lectures but they show you how to create a wireframe and how it can boost your design skills. Ok lets roll it out.
Well Here’s another one showing exactly how its done.
So now you know how its done all you have to do is wait for your next project or design. Do practice it on small projects. The misconception that if your client is small you don’t plan and just do something that is quick and dirty solution. This ruins reputation which is hard earned if you know what I mean.
Do we need anything else than planning. Maybe you can have a look at some tools for making wireframes.
If you plan and do it properly it will have high probability of success. I am keeping this post short just so people can get the idea of what I am talking about.

This was shared by some friends and thought to put it on my blog in case I am not able to find direct link to it. We are still on mercy of Youtube to watch it and of course on mercy of uploading user. Anyway some real things that are going to change the real world.
Have a look at some of the comments on Youtube and people are more concerned about who is going to take over the world however I think more or less the harmful thing for any country is its people in power. From past its clear that whoever has gained power is scared of losing it at some stage and none of the presidents are happy to become prime ministers while every governor has a dream of being president. This race is similar to watching 100 meter run where everybody is cheating and pushing each other, you wont be watching them running but fighting close to starting line.
