How Web Designers Can Make Women Happy: Lessons From Mom

My mom sent this to all the men in our family (yes even her son-in-laws). It occured to me that there was clearly some customer insight here. If we build digital experiences with this in mind, it would be a whole new web wouldn't it? (oh and if you read to the end, clearly the early Web designers were primarily focused on the men ;-)

I think it's rather funny (as opposed to being sexist)
