I've put together a little diagram which conveys how I view the digital ecosystem as well as the various path(s) and process(es) that businesses must tread to see returns from the creative and technological assets they are developing. So much of this is hybrid, holistic in nature that it requires breaking through monoline, siloed trains of thought. Ultimately strategy, design, and technology cannot be separated. They exist as part of a continuum of activities that create value for a business. To the extent that we can blur the lines, do those things that maybe we're not used to doing, and see the world through new sets of colored lenses, I think we'll produce more engaging and meaningful experiences on the web and on mobile, and we'll ultimately create significant shareholder value along the way.
[Some tips: Start on the left and work your way over. Notice trajectories, adjacent shapes, the external context, and which paths would be linear or potentially which would be circular. Leave me feedback! This is a rough first draft.]

This page from Mobilizing Generation 2.0 by Ben Rigby demonstrates a number of problems in URL design and communication. See this image larger. For example, who among us would voluntarily type in the New York Times URL for endnote 7? How long might that New York Times URL take to communicate over the telephone? For endnotes 3 and 12, how many people will type the period at the end of the URL? Which of these URLs takes the least amount of time to type? Presumably the book's website has these URLs somewhere so that you don't have to type them. (I do recommend the book -- it's a great layperson's overview of Web 2.0 technologies with a focus on using them as political motivational and communication tools.)
Empathy for the Content: Answering Health-Seeking Questions
My recent book Design for Care draws a pathway through the spectrum of healthcare design from the consumer experience to clinical practice to institutional services. It discusses the processes of health seeking, information seeking for health needs, andgetting answers to critical questions. In health domains, content design requires much more attention than typical in experience design. In both consumer and professional worlds, better usability does not drive engagement as much as content accessibility, findability, and context relevance. Increasingly, designing information to meet these contexts and needs requires navigating the levels of language that reach the health seeker. As clinicians, family members and caregivers are themselves involved in the health seeking journey, our design approaches must also recognize their contexts and needs for problem solving. The answer is not multiple apps for multiple users – we have already overwhelmed attention with the number of distinct app or URL resources. Smarter information structures, purpose layers, meaning summaries, and written voice are critical to health communication. Peter Jones challenges the audience to help develop the new approaches that might mediate the ongoing content explosion for health seekers. He is on Twitter @designforcare and his research work can be found at designdialogues.com.
My name is Bob Griffin, and I am a full-time faculty member who teaches Information Architecture for the Web Design & Interactive Media Department at The New England Institute of Art. I joined forces with Dorothee Shamonsky and Kay Aubrey (who were the Interface Design and Usability adjunct faculty, respectively) to define the interaction design curricula at the college. The reason that we felt it necessary to get together and define the interaction design curricula was due to our student population complaining about too much overlap in the three separate areas of study.
It’s my feeling that Information Architecture, Interface Design and Usability are separate areas of study, and yet they are also three peas in a pod. You have to have one to help define the other. Trying to talk about one without some semblance of understanding of the other two, is like trying to describe the Three Stooges by only talking about Larry.
Please take a look at what we came up with below. There will always be agreement to disagree — but in the long run — after we did this analysis, our students stopped complaining.
A system/method to enhance "Great habit of Collection" David Allen claims in the his book "Getting Things Done".
About 2 years ago when I was doing a bachelor thesis about Information Architecture, I stumbled upon an example of encoding data visually for rapid perception (Stephen Few, Information Dashboard Design, p.81.).
To me, it seemed like a good concept of showing the benefits of IA to the audience that haven't heard about IA before. Well, of course, there is a difference between data and information, but still it could be useful for selling IA.
In short words, as I understand IA - it is meant to help people in finding the right information in natural way.
Social Software Honeycomb by Gene Smith of Nform (http://www.nform.ca/publications/social-software-building-block). Social software must "specialize" in specific areas, rather than trying to do it all. IAs can play a strategic role in analyzing the components of social software in relation to business drivers.

NYC IxDA - The 7-Minute IxD Soapbox (a.k.a. Pecha Kucha)
2007-11-13 / Method / SoHo, NYC
At this fast-paced event, we're giving seven people a chance to share their ideas — for just seven minutes each. The only rule is that topic must relate to interaction design. Of course, if you simply prefer to take it all in, you're welcome to participate as an audience member.
TOPICS
Anything goes, as long as it's related to interaction design or user experience. Present some of your work; talk about a design problem you're facing; rant about a device you don't like; effuse about your favorite product; share some results from a usability test; question the value of market research in product development; relate an experience with redesigning a product. If you don't want to soapbox alone pair up with a friend or colleague. Heck, you could even do a parody of your favorite IxD guru, if you're so inclined! If it's something you're interested in, chances are very high we're interested too.
GOAL
To connect people in our diverse and powerful community who are interested in having their interaction design neurons stimulated. This event will be an extraordinary grab-bag of local voices. Practice your speaking and presenting skills! Spark some debate! Make new friends and enemies! Gain new insights!
FORMAT
Speakers may use presentation slides, show off short multimedia, demonstrate something online, or just shoot from the hip. Just make sure it's 7 minutes and no longer. After the seven soaps, we'll hold Q&A and/or discussion. Caveat: Nomenclature debates about our roles and what we call ourselves as practitioners (IA, UX, IxD, HCI, CHI, UCD, etc.) will be reserved for anyone wishing to go to the nearest pub after the event.

Case Study: The Evolution of the National Cancer Institute’s Content: How We’re Embracing Future-Ready Content and Living to Tell the Story
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is the Federal Government’s principal agency for cancer research and training. An important part of NCI’s mandate is to provide accurate information about cancer to health professionals and the public. This case study will describe how NCI is evolving its content to move past its print heritage and embrace future-ready digital content. We’ll describe the processes we are using to:
Educate content owners and decision makers on the importance of future-ready content and some of the tough decisions that need to be made in this context.
Define the content strategy that provides a framework for content changes across the site.
Present content in more creative ways, with particular emphasis on infographics and videos.
Extend the use of intelligent content principles to unstructured web content
Leverage structured and semantically marked up content on the enterprise web site. We’ll present examples of our current content and share —via conceptual wireframes, content templates and actual new content—how we’re addressing the challenges of going from a print-centric world to a truly digital device-independent world.
