What is Information Architecture?

Written July 25. 1999, at 04:00 GMT.

C-Net's Builder.com has an OK article called 10 Questions about Information Architecture.

The people on CHI-WEB mailing list had a heated discussion about the definition of the term recently. I found it too uninteresting to follow closely. I.A. has become one of those hot buzzwords like, 'community' and 'virtual-'. Everybody uses it and but knows exactly what it means.

Off-topic: Funny how everything at Builder.com somehow involves either '10 questions' or 'top 10 reasons'. Could it possibly have anything got to do with page-views and stupid banner ads? I wonder...
