[Please view full-screen so you can read the notes. Thank you!] Explains how User Experience is made up of intertwingled practices, and how Participation and Reification result in Identity for Designers.

(Note: I updated this presentation with a newer version on May 6, 2007). Explores how we ended up with so much group emergence online and the importance of conversation, how communities of practice help bridge the divide between traditional command networks and emergent organic groups, some rules of thumb for designing for these communities, and lastly the nature of practice vs. discipline, and what that can mean for the practice of information architecture, and its community. If you want to use anything in the preso, please contact me. Thanks!
