They should complement each other. 53. visual programming Visual programming should be clear and easy to see. It must not move so quickly it can not be followed, nor so slowly it becomes boring. 54. good use of database Database information should have a defined purpose. Databases must be maintained in an up to date manner. If there are no databases, and the site shows no need for them it will score this point. 55. cutting edge technology Good use of technologies considered "cutting edge" will gain this point. This point is for widely recognized forms of technology. It is for those who lead the way in using them. It is not for technologies that are rarely seen that require large downloads to view them. 56. interactive programming Interactive programming should work well. It should be easy to understand. Interactive programming includes: games, forms or any other programming that involves the user being able to influence the outcome of the final product through interaction with the interface. 57. properly placed elements All elements should be placed so that interference with other elements does not occur.
