Using qualifying questions to create a semi-walled garden?

Working on a marketing site for a consumer electronics service.

Some customers can get product A; some can get product B; some can get
both (due to geographic and technical limitations).

There is no clear-cut single qualifying question, but probably 95%
accuracy by postal code (zip code).

Marketing is pushing for a qualifying question up front that will
determine which product you are shown (i.e, you will not be shown the
other product).

We are pushing for an open site that will promote both products, and
give the users the ability to choose, and do qualifying as the first
step

DoTheRightThing.com Wireframes

Inspired in part by @semanticwill's public release of some of his
wireframes, I've put up our prototype for the second release of
http://www.dotherightthing.com . This release hasn't gone live yet, but
will launch within the next few weeks.

http://www.acleandesign.com/2009/02/do-the-right-thing/

I put together the wireframes in Axure. There are a few advanced
interactions in there, such as the company search.

Good stock imagery resources, anyone?

I'm conducting as thorough a review as possible of the best stock
image companies who offer the best value (subscription-based and
pay-as-you-go). Any favorite companies that offer illustrations,
photography, video, etc?

Thanks

Come design ITSME with us

Hi everyone,

I wanted to introduce "Itsme" project to you all and gather your
comments and feedback on it, which I think is very important for the
project as we are moving on from the initial design phase to the
development phase.

So, here goes a little about itsme......

Itsme is a new kind of PC that we are designing and developing. It is
based on a new metaphor of "Stories and venues" : organizing
information as per the context in which they are generated and
needed.

Long / Large forms

Hi,

I'm looking for examples of very long forms, or forms for gathering
lots of data. Forms that have multiple questions (20+) for gathering
lots of long answers (150 words +).

I'm thinking these would be like Resume Builders, Grant
Applications, Business Plans...

Anyone seen or worked on something like this?

Thanks,
Chris

IxD Terms Wiki (was Terms Every IxD Should Know

I'll be happy to contribute.

One thing though; does it have to be restricted to terms? I think its
a good start, but I think it should be open to articles that's not
strictly terms.
