Re: [IxDA] Re: [IxDA] Do you actually possess "design" skills

Reminds me of a conversation I got into with some chaps I was working with at PARC. Went like this: "One day your entire job will be designing the hole someone speaks into to interface with our software"

Re: [IxDA] Do you actually possess "design" skills

I should know to leave well enough alone given the depth of feelings some of the folks commenting in this thread clearly have on this matter, but I'm going to pose the question anyway.

Re: [IxDA] What's your job title?

I'm Creative Software Developer* :) I love the title and the fact that is so confusing for others :)

useful too for seeing mouse activity

Hi, maybe you guys already know about this, but we found this great tool. It's positioned as an "art" tool, but it's been great for us to quickly view mouse and click activity. It's free and available here: http://iographica.com/

[Actually, it IS nice art as well...]

We have no connection to this company - hope you like it.
