Designing a web application? Familiarize yourself with Rich Internet Application technologies and 43 Essential Controls for Creating your Web Applications.

You can create Message Alerts, Page navigation or Links to external content, when your client interacts with your Mockup, yet with the hand drawn feel of a sketch.
