I make an effort to read outside the IA space as often as I can, because I do so love metaphors, and there are so many of them out there in the big wide world just waiting to be captured (and on this, copyblogger.com just ran an excellent series on different uses of metaphor in blog writing that applies itself nicely to IA). Best regards, Andrew Hi Donna,

I love spending time talking to people from all fields - you just never know what you will learn. I recently learned about the UCD styled processes museums took with their exhibitions and it was really interesting, especially when my friend told me that they were doing this for years! (On a side note - after that discussion about museums and exhibitions, she told me that she finally gets what we do ;) ). Well said.
