Designing Web Application Interfaces

Hey all,

I'm planning (over a really long term) to build a custom CMS for my robotics team site. The basic premise behind it is that Wordpress, while really good compared to some other software, still has friction between getting on the site and publishing posts (we're trying to encourage team members to write more about their experience and the technology on the blog).

That said, it means that the interface design has to be really good. If anything stops a user from pushing out that first blog post (besides writer's block) then it puts the CMS to a disadvantage.

Does anyone here have experience designing interfaces? If so, could you recommend some good books or websites I could look into?

Any help is appreciated. :-)
