I see interaction designer as a general title similar to graphic designer. An interaction designer is a person that works with interactive media, and designs and produces more than just visual representations. Behind that it it can include any or all of designing interactions, information architecture, user experience, project management, and some front-end coding and even visual design. Plus more.
Using it in such a broad way can be convenient. I work independently, and thus my role varies a lot depending on the project. On smaller projects I work alone or with 1-2 others and might do everything from identity to production. In larger ones, I may be responsible for just the wireframes. Whatever the role, I am the same person with the same background that propels me to think interactively with the user in the center. I am an interaction designer. Thanks, I've been wondering how to title myself. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
