    Information architecture

    Information architecture is not about surface glamor; it’s about mission-critical infrastructure. And infrastructure has widespread and long-term impact. The ripples of our designs spread outwards, affecting the work of interface designers, programmers, authors, and eventually users… As we design the legacy information architectures of tomorrow, we should consider our responsibility to the big here and the long now.

      Less mysticism and more work. The people who designed TCP/IP, Unix, C or even HTML… didn’t think about how important they will be in the history. Just got the things done.

      Solve the problems in the best possible way, and the time will judge. It is so easy to do nothing thinking “how risky is to do it bad”.
