I try to keep things in normal-people English, but I’m not always successful. I’m lucky that most of my clients are not shy about pulling me back and asking for definitions.
However, for anyone interested, Chris Coyier at CSS Tricks has written an excellent article defining those terms web people throw around.
And yes, “borked” is part of my regular conversation topics.

Mothercraft’s new website combined their multiple existing sites and services into a single resource, while expanding functionality and bringing a fresh look to their online home.
Design & Develop paid special attention to usability testing in the early phases of this project, testing the site design and organization with different levels of users in the Mothercraft organization to ensure that the site would work for a variety of site visitors.
Mothercraft had specific security and user management requirements that were fleshed out fully in mid-project, and fortunately open-source Etomite rose to the challenge.
Mothercraft gets special mention as client of the year, for their patience and humour during a difficult project. The technical difficulties, combined with a site that turned out to be far larger and more complex anyone expected, made for some serious timeline setbacks. As our first major project, Design & Develop learned some important lessons, and thanks Mothercraft for the chance to deliver. Though Mothercraft waited for their site, the results meet and exceed the functionality requested by the organization.
