Pimpformation in Teaching

What's wrong with information architecture?I was honored to discover that Dan Klyn used one of my previous posts in a presentation for his SI 658 Information Architecture course.

I’ve been enjoying his slides and video captures for a while now, but I never expected to be shaping impressionable minds! Thanks Dan, and hello class of SI 658! Good luck on those IA IDOL projects! :-)

By the way Dan, I liked your JJG picture.

Zombie Designers: A PSA From Trent Walton

Zombie DesignersThis rather important notice was posted today from the Department for the Prevention of Designer Zombieism.

Sadly, as Sarah Mitchell and Dave Gray realized, it’s not about designing zombies, but preventing the spread of the infection!

Friends, be alert and take preventative measures!

UX Garbage Pail Kids

GPK UXAustin Govella expressed his need on Twitter, mentioning himself, @livlab, @russu, @maadonna, @semanticwill, @jonesabi, @docbaty, @gsmith and @cb. Always ready to meet the needs of a user, I decided it would be a good excuse to dig out my old GPK collection (yeah, I still have my cards — that’s how I roll!), find matching cards, scan them, update them, and post them. While I was at it, I added @elreiss, @nickf, @theguigirl, @fred_beecher, @ellieoc, @uxcrank, @mediajunkie, @andrewmaier, and @jmspool. I’m glad you guys enjoyed ‘em! Also, I tried not to play favorites in my selection — some of you just have better GPK-able names.

Now I’m just waiting to get a cease and desist letter from Topps. (No harm meant guys, really!)

Check out the full sized cards.

IAI Candidates 2009 CursebirdHere’s your final reminder to vote for the IAI Candidates running for the 3 seats available for the Board of Directors.

You’ve read their statements. A few of you may have heard them speak at a conference, worked with them, or partied with their crews.

But what if you haven’t voted yet and you are yearning for more facts? Click the image and be satisfied.

In the interest of full disclosure, I should point out that Jonell Gades keeps her twitter feed private, and thus the bird could not evaluate her.
