Balsamiq Mockups

by Lon on June 30, 2009

I just need to do a quick plug for this great little app that’s helped with quickly mocking up designs.

Balsamiq Mockups passed me along a free license a while back since I’m involved with doing good and charity work, and I’ve got to say this app is fantastic. It does what it’s designed to do, and almost makes it fun.

It requires next to no training and is fairly intuitive to just about any user. If you’re into designing web or app design or want to mock something up for another person to design – i can’t recommend it more.
