An Evening With Brian Solis in Minneapolis
I attended an event Tuesday evening sponsored by the smartly run Kane Consulting team. Brian Solis came to speak about his book, Engage. The word that came to mind as I left the event was ‘refreshing‘. Brian Solis is smart in understanding what he knows and that it’s a constant to continue to learn. He … Read more
Walking
I love things that inspire me. This young man walked across the country. There is a pause in the middle at Mt. Rushmore. That’s a special place to me because I grew up in South Dakota and visited my grandparents there with my family every year for the first decade of my life. He punctuates … Read more
Fake Email
I got an email today from the people at Gmail (supposedly). They said my account was full. If you are going to fake it, my advice is to do better. They got the email address sort of right but missed the boat They forgot key punctuation (always a clue) They are using inconsistent bolding, coloring, … Read more
Don’t Miss This Message
After updating Firefox this morning, I was greeted with this: Nice clear call to action Brightly colored – impossible to not notice No banner blindness here Love the disclaimer And I think to myself – why can’t we all just get along? Yes, this was nicely communicated, however, the fundamental need for the communication is … Read more
My Voice and the IA Summit
I’ve been thinking about the experience I had chairing the Information Architecture Summit. The event has been key to me throughout my career. I got involved in Septemeber of 2008 because I was called to help Samantha Bailey with the 2009 conference. She needed to know that her in process work chairing the event was going to be left … Read more

Over the past two years I’ve been involved in the Information Architecture Summit programming. This is an event sponsored by the American Society for the Information Age (ASISI&T). The event occurs April 7-11th in Phoenix, AZ. In honor of Ada Lovelace Day I wanted to thank the women that will be speaking at the event. The willingness of … Read more
On the Radio
I was interviewed yesterday about blogging for Ada Lovelace Day.
Make Advertisements Interesting
I think the easiest way for advertisers to evolve in this attention deficit world of ours is to make ads that people WANT to watch. As a bonus, go a little further, make ads that people will share! Below is an advertisement, but it’s so good, I’m sharing it.
The Gender of a Web Site Footer?
I never thought about it before, but I guess in the process of anthropomorphizing, anything can be imbued with gender. Yesterday on Twitter – a couple of Information Architects stated their opinion on the topic.
Facebook: The Courage to Step Away
Facebook has been a constant struggle for me. I got in early because I worked at Sun Microsystems. They let us in shortly after it was opened up to all campuses. It was kinda fun, really addictive and interesting to watch the progress. What I didn’t know then, I know now. Read the Terms of … Read more
