5 - Trevor Corradin

It is fairly obvious that YouTube has a very cluttered homepage. Most of the features provided to users on the homepage are not used, and many even find them annoying. If we used the "Aim Low" method, we could focus on the major parts of the site that are actually used, such as the search feature and related videos feature, instead of focusing on "recommended" videos and "best of" categories. The search and related videos features are used with a much higher frequency than other features of the site, so they should have more time focused on them so that the site will work better with all users, not just some. This also applies to my redesign of the YouTube site in project 3. I focused on a way to better incorporate the "best of" features, whereas the "Aim Low" method would suggest eliminating it all together because it is not a popular feature to most users.
