Hi Richard, Don't worry I don't flame people :-)
A question was asked, and I answered with specific, verifiable examples to better inform the ixda community, that's all. (and actually i just noticed another thread was created around this issue, so apologies for not cross-posting there) But since you asked...well frankly I just don't care what "10 random people" think. Sorry! You can show random people a dark-looking butterfly and they'd call it a moth b/c they don't know any better about the subtle differences. I care about what accomplished, educated, informed, enlightened professionals who are willing and able to grasp those nuances would say. And most of those folks would agree these are interaction and/or service design examples. More importantly, I know that's what they are :-) And I'm not gonna get into the UX issue. This is starting to remind me of Battlestar Galactica: This has all happened before and this will all happen again :-) This thread is becoming yet another never-ending circle of definitions that Saffer warned us against and so I'm checking out of it. It's been real! (But those of you who really want to "break the cycle", I highly recommend Malcolm McCullough's, Jon Kolko's and Dan Saffer's books or even checking out some of the posts on my blog, Ghost in the Pixel ;-) This is a good place to start: http://www.ghostinthepixel.com/?p=63 ) Happy hunting...er I mean reading! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
