its not web, its win :) ...so you gotta keep things in perspective going forward and i'd highly recommend the community in general keep a fairly broad charter around developer/designer experience work. As i think the market is going to freak out by it, lots of confusion and overloading of buzzwords (designer, metro, ux, html5 on the desktop blah blah). If you gets setup a flag point for the unwashed masses to come in and share their knowledge under the one banner, you stand a greater chance of uniting your armies.
If you go rogue state to state, then you're just likely to see the numbers AS-IS and trickle in with same ol same ol content. Now would actually be a good time to cross polynate with Adobe UG (designer <-> developer) thinking as well... Thats my 2c having lived on both sides of the designer / developer UG ethos in both Microsoft/Adobe. --- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.riagenic.com On Thu, Sep 22, 2011 at 8:43 PM, Miguel Madero <m...@miguelmadero.com> wrote: > Wasn't it last year that we started this discussion? :) > > > > Miguel A.
