[Sigia-l] So, how did you become a [InformationArchitect|UsabilityEngineer|Interface Designer|etc.]?

[T. Karsjens]

If I am remember correctly, and it has been a while since I even thought
about that first IA conference in Boston, he actually admitted that he was
not sure what he was doing at a library sciences conference, but he was
presenting what his area of expertise was... and that was database
architecture. 

Through half the answer, I was being scolded by my then boss about being, I
believe the term he used was, "too abrasive".

The thing that made the biggest impression on me that weekend was Peter
Merholz saying to the room at large, look, this web stuff is new, we are
going to make mistakes, move on and fix them.
