(For those of you who haven't read it: Tog proposes the introduction of
the term "Interaction Architect")

I gotta admit, I like the way he's frank about how we are emotionally
attached to the Fountainhead-level pompousness of the term
"Architect"... and about how this pompousness might, in fact, loosely
translate into salary. Other people justify "Information Architect" with
goofy metaphorical contortions about "information spaces" and such, when
really all they want is to be something more intellectually hefty than a
mere "designer".

Also, Interaction Architect still is abbreviated "IA". How convenient!

PS: Anyone get my "frank" joke, above?
