Last Thursday I attended Part 4 of 4 workshops given by Adaptive Path. Titled UX Intensive: Information Architecture, this workshop focused on the nuts and bolts of Info Architecture. So, what is an Information Architect? To define it simply, an Information Architect is much like a librarian. An Architect takes the time to structure, organize, and label website content so it can be managed effectively and facilitates findability by website visitors.

There's always a buzz of activity happening with the Nothing But Nets campaign of the United Nations Foundation. On Friday afternoon, the buzz took the form of mosquito-suited hipster.

Today I was emailed by Shannon Raybold (The High Priestess of Web, AKA Internet Director of the United Nations Foundation) to update Nothing But Nets' Net-o-meter. She explained they received a nice chunk of the millions of dollars contributed by American Idol's Idol gives Back.
