http://zennie2005.blogspot.com - I had the rare pleasure of seeing Adaptive Path's sketchseet for the CNN Website Relaunch. This video presents what's on that sheet.

Adaptive Path, that rascally little South Park user experience studio at the center of all things web 2.0, celebrated it's sixth year in existence with a retro prom party. Last year, we had to find out what the meaning of Adaptive Path was? This year, we channel our inner VC and get the answers that any potential sugar daddy might ask.
