What do you use to organize your thoughts for a new website or project?
richesh: My first order of business is to come up with a pretty good draft of my data model. I use OmniGraffle, but you can use any data modeling tool. Once I have a solid understanding of my data model, I generate a scaffolding.Once I can see the data, interact with it, and tweak it to my heart's content. Then I turn to tools like Balsamiq, or just a large pad and pen to generate the views.
