So many great talks! (I missed as many as I caught, and was grateful
for the videos.) But Chris Conley's "Dramatic Features" talk
really stood out for me. As did Gretchen Anderson's.

I just completely disagree with the way you're framing the conversation.
Although some here may be making claims about personas being "scientific," I
certainly do not make this claim.

Jarod-- just to be clear, I'm not making any claims about Larry's

James,
I think that you are mis-characterizing personas. A persona is simply
a model. It can be a good model or a bad model.
When you write: "None of 5 Personas represent any of the 32 real
participants. We effectively thrown away all our data away."
This is simply an example of a bad persona se

Thanks for writing. Not trying to indulge in hubris. Just trying to find an
open-ended way to put people at the heart of what we are doing. As an

Just a reminder here to please refrain from personal attacks in our

Folks,
The tone in this discussion has taken a turn towards the
unreasonable. Personal attacks such as the ones made here are never
acceptable in this community.

"As a community, do we have the option of posting a formal response
on the IxDA site? Or does the board wish the organization to remain
neutral?"

to time, issues emerge for which we have no precedent, and sometimes
it gets a little chaotic while we figure things out.
So I ask for your indulgence, goodwill, and cooperation.

Folks,
Speaking from my experience, getting involved in local organizing is
a great experience. It's a great way to meet colleagues, learn,
grow, network, etc.
So it's great to hear you put out this call, Alexander. I hope folks
take you up on the opportunity.

There was a little confusion about the timezone (although my email
said EST - the website didn't specify - and won't until I can
update it tonight) so I've reopened the system until midnight

Wait. How is AJAX an example of "thinking outside the box" from a
*design* perspective? It's clever, sure. But all AJAX does is bring
a subset of existing desktop-style interactions to the browser.
This is clever development, not clever design.

Hi Ryan,
Speaking as one of the list admins, I can say that this is a fine
place to post that role. I suspect the reaction you are seeing is
because the role appears to have two titles. The subject line
references a "UX Designer", while the body references a "Software
Design Engineer."
