I never said your opinion was wrong Lawrence

I asked why you should think it's right, which is not the same thing at all.

As to who I am, I'm your conscience, for all those big headed, spiteful and egotistical things you have ever posted online.

I accuse !
Zola.

    Why are digital agencies so easily conned into believing that because someone calls themselves an information architect, that they are one? It obvious when listening to some the ...
    • 95% of information architects are fakes, LawrenceLadomery, 7 May 14:01
      I don't think that a dedicated (and expensive) IA expert is necessary all the time.  Not all sites need to express complex data and interaction systems. Also, like in architectu ...

      Hi Catherine, Are you suggesting that a business analyst with a library science background is a fake? Or a developer who has studied cognitive science? Using your criteria, I ce ...

      Well, considering Sturgeon's law, this should not come across as a surprising statement, but I'll disagree, at least for most of America (especially California, where I reside). Mo ...

        It was good to hear from the faithful defending the religion of IA. Christina you should really run you stuff through a spell check first, I can note the passion but the delivery i ...
    • 95% of information architects are fakes, runger, 7 May 17:23
      How many people are claiming that they are Information Architects versus companies hiring "Information Architects" for some incorrect / inaccurate reason?  I find it difficult to b ...

      When Richard Saul Wurman came up with the designation 'Information Architect', I thought it was an overly pretentious title for a job that was perfectly adequately described by the ...

        James, I wouldn't discount the importance of 'getting rooms are in the right place and connect together logically'. Zaha Hadid and Frank Gehry are preoccupied about such things as ...
        • 95% of information architects are fakes, JamesSouttar, 8 May 14:33
          Lawrence, I agree with you that what we call 'information architecture' these days can be done by a whole range of different people. But equally calling this listmaking 'architectu ...
          • 95% of information architects are fakes, Quantos, 9 May 09:16
            Great reply James. I think it is worth remembering that 'architect' is also a common noun/verb used long before being adopted by modern professional 'architects'. From the Oxfor ...
      • 95% of information architects are fakes, EricReiss, 8 May 16:32
        Why can't we all take a broader view of the words "information" and "architecture"? Is there really a crying need to change the job title after well over a decade of use? It's like ...

          At last a bit of sanity in this thread.  Thanks Eric. On 16:32:45 8 May 2008 EricReiss wrote: Why can't we all take a broader view of the words "information" and "architectu ...
    • 95% of information architects are fakes, Karl_Smith, 9 May 12:47
      This is a really interesting article which picks out (or rather on) a number of facets of digital consultant identities. It seems designed to create mayhem. I offer no solut ...
    • 95% of information architects are fakes, IA-PRO, 10 May 01:42
      According to some people 72% of all statistics are made up, that may be the case it depends on if this is science or art. If Information Architecture is Science it should have ...

          But how do I validate your opinion Lawrence Ladomery ? How can I know, that you know anything, about what your are saying? You’re entitled to an opinion, but how many website ...

            I used to have info about where I work on my profile but another IA decided to call me up and complain about a post where I criticised him and his website. Are all 'real' IAs s ...

              I don't think I ever said I was an IA. “I tend to assume that people who participate in this forum are experienced professionals and therefore I value their opinions”. I had a l ...

                Is my opinion really that wrong? My view is that the role of the information architect is important when complexities are such that an expert is needed. But in most cases the IA ...

                    So do you agree or not with what I'm saying? By asking me why I think I am right you seem more preoccupied about me than the discussion you started in the first place! I'm flatt ...

                      The forum thread is out of control, and there are clear examples of vote rigging that we're looking into.  That aside, all opinions are valid and surely this is a case of horse ...

                          Hi James, Fair comment, but I'm not a Nielsen fanboy - he says some interesting things but often seems to point out the obvious, and what's right for one website isn't necessari ...
