Benchmarks+and+Best+Practices

=Benchmarks and Best Practices= For this leg of the wiki participation, we will investigate, analyse and post our findings here in regards to existing products as well as any best practices to inform our projects. They can serve as inspiration or examples we can draw from to better situate our work within the contemporary field of user experience design.

Each student is required to post 2 benchmarks and/or best practices in a shared page (ie. not the team workspace). It makes sense to find examples related to your own project that can serve as inspiration for your designs. This can include mechanism ( ie. social bookmarking) that may find their way into your own project.

Each example should include :
 * 1) a brief description of the example ( include graphics as needed)
 * 2) a list of significant insights (point form)

Due date - Section A - Oct 29, Section B -Oct. 26
