Making Wireframes Meaningful

Christina and Nate presented a very nice way to make wireframes more meaningful. Information Architects, designers and developers can (and should!) work together more effectively using a standards-based enviornment.

Within these new wireframes, references should be CSS-compataible. Hierarchies should be indentified. Task Analysis can define the source code order. (I really like this idea.) Using semantics and in-house vocabulary to develop a consistent CSS Naming Convention.

A great idea. I think it's a real good step forward for wireframes, and for teams of designers, IA's and developers that work on projects. Very good stuff.
