What is Informatics?
Sunday, May 30th, 2004Well, this question has been asked recently and I always answer “It is human centered technology.” That response usually will suffice for the temporary conversation, but if they asked a follow-up to that question, what would I say? My friend Aaron summed it up pretty well in this post on his blog.

Week in review 5/23 - 5/29
Saturday, May 29th, 2004Well, since I last left you, quite a bit has happened over the past week. The week has ended on a relaxing note with the knowledge that there is still work to be done, but knowing that the peak has been reached and now it is all about pacing myself on my way back down [...]

Slam Poetry
Saturday, May 22nd, 2004It didn’t matter what the content was. It didn’t matter where the venue was. It wasn’t about placing one person above another. It didn’t matter that some were better than others. It didn’t matter what my life had for me outside the club. Last night, it just didn’t matter.
