I was looking into courses and educational opportunities for me to better understand the science behind information architecture, user experience and interaction design and found a really nice list of information architecture elevator pitches on The Information Architecture Institute website.

I am going to refer all the sales-type folks at Geniant to this information and I would recommend this to anyone that wants to get a fairly straightforward understanding of what IA is.

Edit: I just noticed that Geniant’s very own Garrett Dimon is a contributor to this site with his Wireframe Templates and Stencils  for Visio. Hey Garrett, I hope these work in Visio 2007!

I was out cruising around catching up on my web interests and I happened upon this site while looking for ideas for a new Wordpress template for suitedcowboys.com. I am a collector of desktop backgrounds or wallpaper, so I really think this is a pretty cool thing. It uses the Flickr API to query and retrieve random images marked as public from some of the wallpaper groups on Flickr.
