The twitter CEO one stood out me, being that anything this guy is willing to share has to be useful!.

What stood out to me was to be user centric. And while I am a graphic design studio I can't quit think of how I could be user centric. Especially being that the mold of graphic designer websites is that basically we show our work and then maybe links to a blog.

While I am writing this I am thinking that maybe I give users the ability to vote on designs? Nah thats been done and it would be devastating if all my designs get a low score.

There has to be a way to create a feature for the users that would really make my business website stand out from the monld of insert your name here portfolio sites.
