Diagrams that Look Great
One of the thinks I dislike is people that stick with the first thing they get and do not take the time to see if there's anything better for them out there.
The usage of Visio is one example.
I never really liked the application, but 10 years ago it was one of the best we had for Windows.
Apple users really never suffered with this mainly because of OmniGraffle.
But one decade has passed and Visio still has the same not very good user experience interface and the same old boring graphics. Overall, the application transmits a look and feel of the nineties, even with that ribbon menu and the Aero look...
Fortunately there are others that feel the same, and when great UX pairs with great design, the result is (usually) a solution that rocks! We no longer have to stick with dull looking Visio diagrams, now there are things like gliffy.
The result of using gliffy, or similar solutions, is great looking diagrams that one can include in any document and it will produce a positive effect, because instead of turning your document dull, it will help making it look cool.
