<li><a href="http://www.alistapart.com/issues/255">A List Apart: Issue 255</a>
<p>As usual, A List Apart delivers two solid articles: <a href="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/findabilityorphan">Findability, Orphan of the Web Design Industry</a> and <a href="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/signupforms">Sign Up Forms Must Die</a>. While I don’t really agree with the thought that all Sign Up Forms Must Die, I think Luke Wroblewski brings up a lot of interesting points.</p>

<li><a href="http://www.airbagindustries.com/archives/airbag/farnsworth.php">Farnsworth.</a>

</li>

<li><a href="http://www.thinkvitamin.com/features/webapps/the-thrill-of-launch">The thrill of launch</a>
<p>This is a great article for two reasons:</p>
<ol><li>It was really interesting to read about the hectic day that <a href="http://clickpass.com/">Clickpass</a> had leading up to their launch. (I know the feeling)</li>
<li>I think that OpenID is going to be really important this year. With services like Clickpass making it easier for developers to add OpenID to their sites, I am hoping that OpenID will really take off this year.</li>
