Web design: 15 very effective Joomla implementations

Hi Ryan,
As a professional who's found no better way to think about my customers as putting myself "in their shoes", I'm really dumfounded such a website as Tehrepublic has not come to realise (let's not talk about design in the first place) this sequential, endless-walking- and clicking-through tens of pages is not only horrendous, but just wasting my as-much-as-yours precious time. I wish to bring something constructive (after all these years of being part of TechRep). May be just a case where (TehRep) "group policy" could be amended.
It would certainly lower the click rate of the site. But what is important?
