Right on. Give it to them, straight.
Just like the department store customers at the mall, they are not
interested in the structure, architecture or bird's eye view of your site.
(That's your domain as the IA/designer.) They are interested in getting
at the goods. They shouldn't have to refer to a site map, manual, help,
user guide or other devices of abstraction just to navigate the site.
Best,
Ziya
