“The Collaborative User Experience (CUE) team in IBM Research has spent nearly a decade studying email. Not only has email become one of the most pervasive and successful collaborative tools available, it has also become a key component of IBM’s Lotus Software offerings. In many ways, email can be seen as a victim of its own success — users increasingly suffer from overload and interruptions as well as use email in a manner for which it was not intended. To meet the challenges in researching email, we have taken a multifaceted approach to data collection.”

“MBDC is articulating and putting into practice a new design paradigm; what Time calls ‘a unified philosophy that — in demonstrable and practical ways — is changing the design of the world.’ Instead of designing cradle-to-grave products, dumped in landfills at the end of their ‘life,’ MBDC transforms industry by creating products for cradle-to-cradle cycles, whose materials are perpetually circulated in closed loops. Maintaining materials in closed loops maximizes material value without damaging ecosystems.”

“Space flight is known to be a risky business, but during the minutes before dawn last February 1, as the doomed shuttle Columbia began to descend into the upper atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean, only a handful of people — a few engineers deep inside of NASA — worried that the vehicle and its seven souls might actually come to grief. It was the responsibility of NASA’s managers to hear those suspicions, and from top to bottom they failed.”
“On December 1, 2003, a new website for Harper’s Magazine launched at Harpers.org. This site was conceptualized, programmed, and designed by myself, under the management of Harper’s senior editor Roger D. Hodge. I also wrote some copy for the site, and have been editing the Archive of pre-1900 articles. I desperately need a nap, but I thought I’d tell you a bit about the site first.”
