I'm one of the few mentioned, who has made a successful time of it,
without any
degree, let alone a specialized Master in IxD or Ux.
I have practiced interaction design on a daily basis, but again, only
within the context
of the web. I also feel a lot of the web marketing and optimization I
do has given
me insights to aspects of the user/designer/organization relationship
that perhaps
emerging graduates have yet to realize.
But I can't help but wonder what landscapes would be revealed by some
quality
coursework facilitated by a generalist.
I enjoy the web like crazy, but having recently been downsized into a
new round of
resume-flinging, I'm reminded of my curiosity about the wider world of IxD.
I hope this helps to explain my humble questions to the group. :)

Having been a "web designer" of 12 years, and having experienced only that
aspect of interaction design, I feel my aspirations are limited.
I fear I may be missing out in the world of IxD! What are some ways you
might suggest for me to remove the blinders? This list has been a wonderful
and engaging channel for me, to learn more about the specialty/practice of
IxD in-general, but where else can I turn?
Thanks!
