Functional wireframes are incredibly difficult to read - the method of presentation gets in the way of being able to translate the information into a real screen, especially at the review stage. Visual wireframes also started to break down a belief that information architecture can be considered in isolation to information design. The information is the interface. I have a love hate relationship with wireframes. In the last 10 years they’ve been a part of every web project I’ve worked on.

This is a brief report and things we learned about the experimental ‘knowledge networking’ and ‘social reporting’ facilitation work done at Online Information 2008 , co-authored between David Wilcox and Emma Wallace and me. As delegates entered this information as part of their profiles, this gathered two ‘tag clouds’ which reflected the interests of the attendees and gave them a natural route to finding eachother. We worked with Lorna Candy and the team at Incisive Media to help them provide more networking opportunities for delegates and speakers before and during the conference, online and offline, using different tools.

Jay Cross states that 80% of learning is informal (in his book informal learning ). This was the list: - Experiences on the job 45% - Manuals and instructions 2% - Training programs 8% - Networking 30% - Mentoring & coaching 3% - Special assignments 2% - Workshops 10%

Informal communication is about everything else. There are enough triggers for an opportunity-based communication and being in front of someone makes negotiating about time, space and channels for informal communication easy (you rather make a minute to talk about the thing, say “no” or make an arrangement about communicating later on). From one side, when there is no “easyness” of face-to-face settings, we are likely to rely on structured communication, since negotiating time and resources for informal As promised – more thinking from our project looking at the challenges in distributed Agile teams .

Operating in a shared space makes various interactions informal and their value implicit – everyone is there, questions are asked and answered, insights and artefacts shared, actions observed. Strong reliance on sharing a space usually means that there are not many backup information flows (to revisit from a distance or later) and that communication practices are not well articulated (so it’s difficult to change them or “move” to another – digital – format if the need arises). Just reflecting on a couple of cases where team performance – by design – depends a lot on sharing the same room.

RJ: What’s your response to people who say that all this information that’s out there, all this knowledge that we’re producing is great, and there’s all this access that we didn’t have before. But we also risk information overload alongside, and we don’t— But the information overload people are the most narcissistic because information overload started in Alexandria, in the library You should definitely make time to read the entire two-part article.
