[Sigia-l] Tool standardization (was about visio or not to visio)

Yeah, and you can get that with just about any application that we've 
mentioned here, or a site license.

I'm all for standardization. But I'm more of an advocate for 
standardizing on the proper or best tool for the job. That tool differs 
from time to time. And while a lot of places use Visio for UX work, in 
my humble opinion, I think it's a really crappy tool and that there are 
tools better suited for the job 99% of the time. Or looking at what 
people use Visio for 99% of the time, it can be done quicker and easier 
in something like Illustrator/Freehand (cross platform), or 
OmniGraffle.

Your mileage may vary.

In theory, theory and practice are the same.
In reality, they are not.
