Andy,
If you have exact addresses for businesses (rather than just zip),
the Google Maps query can get more precise latitude/longitude, so if
the user supplies an address you could give a more accurate sorted
list (maybe sorted by proximity initially). The grouping on
everyblock.com is really
If you have the budget and the audio isn't too long you might look at
http://castingwords.com - you upload your audio and based on rate you
get your transcription back in a few days or a couple weeks. The
lowest/slowest turnaround is 2 weeks for .75 per minute. When the
clips are short, it's
Andrei,
I have to disagree. Your point can be taken on the home page, but
what about every other page of the site? That's where I think it's
even more problematic. When you go to an interior page they carry the
same design through, and then the percentage of non-linked body copy
to other links is
If it's charting/graphing, you could look at Open Flash Charts here:

I've been looking a little at it and integration with Drupal here as
well:

Nothing built yet, but it looks interesting so far...
I think you've got most of the points covered; it's just tough
sometimes to distinguish between what can and can't easily be
addressed. The unfortunate thing is even in a new implementation
there are often so many issues in play it's difficult to tell.
A recent review I helped conduct of a
I agree with what's been written: the web-based experience seems much
more worthwhile than the 'digital versions' with their interface
quirks.
What does seem to be an interesting development are the iPhone
versions of things like NY Times: it's really quite good, and
appropriate to the medium. A
Another book worth mentioning is 'Subject to Change' from the people
at Adaptive Path (including Peter Merholz). The focus on experience
design and user empathy is really compelling, and has had a big
influence on my thinking as a designer.

I think that we've probably all seen situations all across the
spectrum - but ideally I think that HTML/CSS creation and prototyping
belong earlier in the process, so that interative design can take
place and as mentioned above, when it's time to implement the system

We've used it in a site and I think that others have summed it up -
it's there as a more visible illustration of the top two levels of
the site to help users move laterally with greater ease. By tucking
it down at the footer it's less obtrusive but easily found when
reaching the bottom of the page

Welcome to the Interaction Design
. And I did find myself
clicking on a result or two voting them 'up' before I really knew what
the feature was all about. Pretty easy to grasp.

There certainly is a lot of crossover between this thread and the one
on 'What to teach interaction design students' - and the heart of both
topics seems to center around language and understanding. First,
needing to have a clearly articulated definition of the discipline and
