Welcome, Valerie! So far I like everything I've read about the Designer's Accord. As an interaction designer yourself, how about a little jump-start? Where do you see the fit with interaction design? And thanks for asking the tough question right up front. I wrote a convoluted response and scrapped it. No need to thank me. Had to be done to get at the meat of it. I'll put it this way, as a start: What we think, and how we think, is to a great extent what we become. If we engage constantly in very tedious and complex and frustrating interactions, we will become that kind of person. If we instead function simply, transparently and efficiently, we will be imbued with those qualities as individuals and as a society. I know which I prefer, and I think I know which will provide the greatest longterm benefit to humanity. What do you think? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
