Danny V. sent me this manifesto, however it came without a URL:

The End-User Manifesto

Things that need to be in the mind of anyone building software, particularly for the Web.

1. Don’t waste my time.

2. Help me do the right thing.

3. Respect my decisions.
[snip]
14. Tell me a compelling story. This applies to weblogs, corporate sites, fan sites, any site. I’m visiting you to learn something, even if it’s just a good story about something you’re selling or the day you had. Good stories inspire conversations, and markets are built on those.
