So, can this thread be used to illustrate an example of what is NOT User Centered Design, a topic being discussed in another thread?
Which brings up an interesting design issue. Is there any tool that allows discussion threads to flow like rivers, connecting at times, and then flowing off in different directions if the contact is only temporary? Yeah, I know this can be done manually and mentally, but is front end, or an applet that can be, say, embedded in Gmail as well as other mail clients, which allows you to drag two threads together and connect them visually, so that anyone who wishes can travel back up both tributaries if they wish? [Now, chances are, with such busy threads and such busy people, nobody really has the time or desire to go back up a thread, but there might be some context in which this sort of structural feature is useful.] -murli ________________________________________________________________ *Come to IxDA Interaction08 | Savannah* February 8-10, 2008 in Savannah, GA, USA Register today: http://interaction08.ixda.org/ ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
