In the past few years, I've read a number of articles on information architecture which try to give meaning to the symbols used. I gotta say that Jessie James Garret's explanation is by far, the best I've seen. After reading his explanation I can actually see how mapping out a site's architecture could actually be helpful in a project's early stages! Until now, it just seemed like something I'd be able to do only once I had the site/application already designed.

I downloaded one of the symbol libraries and used it in powerpoint. The links were made automatically, but were still able to be modified. Since I usually have to fight with a program to get it to flowchart the way I'd like, this really seemed like magic!
