- Today I finished reading the Malcolm McCullough book, Digital Ground. This was one of the most readable books on interaction design by way of examining the impact of pervasive computing on people and places. McCullough is an architect by training and does an excellent job using the architecture role in design and development of the end product. The following quote in the preface frames the remainder of the book very well: My claims about architecture are indirect because the design challenge of pervasive computing is more directly a question of interaction design. |

- On my recent trip through the Minneapolis airport I heard a lot of Prince over the airport loudspeakers as well as from the stores. That was a great welcome to Minneapolis. I have been through that airport four times in the past couple months and the airport and the view flying in has me very intrigued with the city, or at least wanting to get out of the airport for a few days. The impact of the airport made me think about other airports and I can think of none that I have been drawn step out and explore. This could be because the airports I do enjoy I also enjoy the city. |

- About these people, that they can not admit when they are wrong? Or is it that in doing so, they are forced to admit lie on top of lie as the basis for going to war in Iraq. You know... I am personally am sick of the self righteous bullshit coming out of the administration. They have taken the concept of SPIN to an incredible new level. |
