There’s a nice post over on Design Observer (Link) that’s very much worth taking the time to read… both for designers and for those who hire them. The pay off is towards the end, so be sure to read the whole thing. At that point, the title for this post will make some sense I hope. And perhaps some of my comments over the past year where I’ve talked about “context” and “framing” will also start to make sense to those who didn’t understand me.

The post also raises the “control” issue; something about which I’ll be posting in the future. It’s most definitely something at the heart of most everything I discuss here.

Also be sure to read the comments over on the Design Observor post. The one comment discussing “Microsoft” as a name made me smile.
