      <description>&lt;p&gt;Agree about not using sitemaps much &amp;#8211; just get too busy for big sites and then there&amp;#8217;s all the exceptions&amp;#8230; I put the sectional nav in Excel and flow-chart the exceptions (carts etc). However if I need something really good looking I&amp;#8217;ll use GraphViz (PC and Mac) to produce beautiful diagrams for IA from Excel but it is *quite* involved: You have to use the &amp;#8216;concatenate&amp;#8217; feature to write various pieces of column information into a single cell, then export that to a GraphViz friendly txt format. GraphViz can produce outstanding results but you have to sweat a little. &lt;a href="http://www.graphviz.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.graphviz.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
