When I started work in the online world, we had to fit all our content into quite small screens. The first site I managed was built for 800 x 600 px screens.

I’m fascinated by how we use our different devices these days.

I was arguing with a colleague of mine the other day about the importance of a good navigation structure. My colleague didn’t think they were important any more: “These days everyone uses Google. They don’t need to navigate a site, they just search for the page they want and click on the link”.

Can someone please tell me when digital content became all about ‘social’?
