Thanks for the plug for us content strategists, Chris. I don't disagree with you--it can only help all of us who work in the interactive space, no matter how we self-define, to talk more about how we construct narratives. Speaking from a personal perspective, though, I'd like to see the reverse happen: for "content people" to be acknowledged not just as the providers of the raw material for the "real" designers, and not just as wordsmiths and/or data manipulators%u2014but as user experience professionals with the very expertise you discuss, whose visual and structural capacity brings them to this work, and whose collaboration on design exponentially improves the interactive experience.
And just so you don't think I'm being entirely altruistic here (ha!), please feel free to see my blog post about Andrew's presentation at http://elenamelendy.com. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
