These definitions are primarily so the people on this list can stop debating the definitions, at least for the sake of argument. I hope they catch on beyond this list, but mostly I'm just tired of the endless semantic debates. If we can point to something and say "that's a car", then we might be able to agree on what a car is, at least long enough for people to make points without having to debate the definition of "car". > I have yet to say anything about ACD being better than UCD. > > So, it's not? > I didn't say that. I said I don't understand why you brought this up on this thread, when I haven't touched the subject of better or worse. I've only said we should work to define both. > > > Yah, so I've heard.

If this list has proven anything, it's that we CAN'T define "information", > "interaction", "design", "usability", "personas", "designers", "design > process", "design thinking", "typography", "layout", or any other term. > > Hell, we can't even define "definition." > That may very well be the case, but I'm going to give it a shot anyway. It's entirely possible that you're far more wise than I, and this little group will never come up with a definition good enough to suit the IxDA Board and community, but I still say it's worth a shot. And if it ends up being a waste of time, well then I learn something. -r- ________________________________________________________________ *Come to IxDA Interaction08 | Savannah* February 8-10, 2008 in Savannah, GA, USA Register today: http://interaction08.ixda.org/ ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
