Interaction Design Style (My IA Summit 2007 Presentation)

“It’s been a little less than a week since my IA Summit presentation. To my great surprise, it went really well. I mean really well. In the next day or so I will be posting a summary of my experiences preparing and discussing my topic, which was, in a word, style. Many people came to me after my presentation asking me not only to post the slides themselves, but also to post the reading list since I did discuss a lot of books and sites that deeply influenced my thinking.”

Flickr: Photos from oregonianphoto

Matt: “This is wicked cool: Someone from the big state newspaper The Oregonian is posting all the photos that go with stories in the paper to Flickr…”

Derek: “Yah! If only it wasn’t a violation of Flickr’s TOS.”

Maybe information architecture is not sleeping, just resting…

“So, I spurred something of a shitstorm in my post where I commented on information architecture is sleeping. Most people focused on the wrong thing, the cancellation of a workshop, when what I was hoping to expose was the tendency towards isolation and insularity that the community seemed to be falling into. So, I’ve now returned from the 8th IA Summit, and I’m thinking of revising my statement.”
