One of the best is the Web Design from Scratch site. It’s an excellent resource for aspiring web communicators. It’s definitely a resource to use again and again.

Remember the one of the key points from our discussion on Tuesday was to understand how web design style and convention has evolve to this point (e.g. the Web 2.0 style). And notice too how how these sites use CRAP and content to make key information/key messages prominent.
