I was privileged to attend a BBQ at Russ Unger's place last year and listen to some respected members of the IA/UX community discuss the relative merits of different styles and brands of ukulele - I am not sure that we can stop ourselves comparing one thing to another and evaluating them against our own heuristics, both individually and in groups. I've seen the same sort of conversation take place amongst wine/beer/camera/car/firearm/blog/forum/aquarium/dog/power tool/sword/PC/phone owners/geeks over the years. I've not thought of heuristics in terms of these informal "bull sessions" before - yet they were there all the time. Interesting.
