  here’s a great execution of a reasonably novel user experience. Sure, they do have to provide navigation tips in the header, but you can’t deny that it’s enjoyable, learnable and actually beautifully simple. Nice work XRS :)

Call me crazy, but I feel as though I’ve just uncovered the holy grail of Visio.

I don’t know how many people I’ve asked about ways that you can create a Table of Contents in Visio. It seems like it should be sooooo easy, but no one has ever been able to help me out.
