[IxDA Discuss] Come Join The Discussion with Dan Saffer on The WELL

[James Leftwich, IDSA]

I wanted to post a pointer and invitation to come join a publicly  
accessible interview/discussion we're having on The WELL in the  
public Inkwell conference.  It's a discussion with one of our  
disciplines own leading voices, Dan Saffer, from Adapative Path,  
author of the new book, "Designing For Interaction: Creating Smart  
Applications and Clever Devices."

Dan's succeeded in creating a fantastic introduction and overview of  
our discipline of interaction design.  People are encouraged to  
participate in this discussion, and I know there are many of you with  
keen insights and thoughtful ideas that would greatly contribute.

It will go on for a little more than a week.  Offsite readers with  
questions or comments may send them to

to have them added to the conversation.

The discussion began with Dan and I, and now others are joining in.   
I hope as the week goes on, more people will come and join us.

About The WELL

The WELL is a cherished and acclaimed destination for conversation  
and discussion. For twenty years it has captivated intelligent,  
creative people. It is widely known as the primordial ooze where the  
online community movement was born — where Howard Rheingold first  
coined the term "virtual community." Over the last two decades, it's  
been described as "the world's most influential online community" in  
a Wired Magazine cover story, and "the Park Place of email addresses"  
by John Perry Barlow. It's won Dvorak and Webby Awards, inspired  
songs and novels, and almost invisibly influences modern culture.

Now run by Salon Media Group, independent publishers of the ground- 
breaking Salon.com online news magazine, The WELL continues to cast a  
long cultural shadow. For many people it's the place you aren't quite  
sure you've heard of, but may just wish you had. For members, it's a  
place to come up with the next interesting thing and a way to live.

Hope to see you there!

Jim
