		<title>Why &#8220;Unthought Known&#8221;?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been asked about the meaning behind this site&#8217;s title enough to finally give it more explanation. I&#8217;ve always been interested in cognitive and behavioral psychology. In particular, how technology and human interaction with computers is influencing how humans think and behave. I think it&#8217;s safe to say our everyday behaviors are a collection of [...]]]></description>

		<title>User Experience &#8211; Just Another Buzzword?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re hip. We&#8217;re in. People like us. It feels good, right? We&#8217;ve spent years banging our heads against the corporate wall and desperately evangelizing UX to anyone that would listen. All this effort feels like it has finally paid off. I can&#8217;t walk down the street or flip through my inbox without running into a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Illustrated: Don Norman&#8217;s Action Cycle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Beyond my work with the Human Factors team at Qwest, I teach a graduate class at the University of Denver. Regularly our class engages in conversations around Don Norman’s Action Cycle. Recently, Interaction-Design.org posted a video of Norman from the early 90’s. It seemed timely, for me anyway, so I thought I’d post an illustration [...]]]></description>

		<title>Forget the Rockstar &#8211; Find a Collaborator</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m seeing a lot more of this lately. Companies looking for a &#8220;Rockstar&#8221; user experience designer. The thought that keeps crossing my mind is, &#8220;Who wants to work with a Rockstar?&#8221; When I&#8217;m looking to build a team that aspires to achieve at a high level my thoughts are far from seeking out a Rockstar.

		<title>Countdown to IxDA11: The Locals View</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago I wrote about the iPhone app for this year&#8217;s conference. We&#8217;re 6 days away from the conference kickoff and I&#8217;m guessing by now most attendees are determining how to spend their time when they&#8217;re not getting schooled by legends like Bill Verplank; taking a lesson from Indi Young; or listening to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Countdown to IxD11: iPhone App Bliss</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve decided to write several posts counting down to Interaction 11. 9 more days until the show. There is certainly plenty to be excited about this year. First, the conference is sold out. Not only is it sold out but it felt, to me at least, that it sold out lightning fast. So those attending [...]]]></description>

		<title>But It’s Not My iPad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning I was sitting at the breakfast table with my wife&#8217;s family. We were chatting about Black Friday and each surfing the internet to find the best deals. I picked up my father-in-law&#8217;s iPad. This would be my first authentic stab at the iPad. By &#8220;authentic&#8221; I mean that I&#8217;ve played around with an [...]]]></description>
