People's Front of Design

BRIAN: Are you in to developing software?

REG: F*** off.

BRIAN: What?

REG: Interaction Design. We’re the IxDA… developers! caw!

FRANCIS: Wankers.

BRIAN: Can I join your group?

REG: No. Piss off.

BRIAN: I didn’t want to code this stuff. It’s only a job. I hate writing code as much as anybody, I want to be a designer

JUDITH: Are you sure?

BRIAN: Oh. Dead sure… I hate coding already.

REG: Listen. If you really wanted to join the IxDA, you’d have to really hate coding.

BRIAN: I do.

REG: Oh yeah? How much?

BRIAN: A lot!

REG: Right. You’re in. Listen. The only people we hate more than the developers are the f***ing usability test specialists.

FRANCIS: The UPA!

JUDITH: Hate them.

FRANCIS: And the AIGA.

LORETTA: Oh yeah. Splitters.

FRANCIS: And the CHI.

LORETTA: Oh yeah. Splitters.

REG: We design for the user

LORETTA: Oh, I thought we did User Centered Design

FRANCIS: Whatever happened to UCD?

REG: He's over there talking to Jared

Pauric, post of the year! You deserve an award for that.

Dennis, that and the rest of it: "This software is not dead, it's just sleeping", "David is not the messiah, he's just a very naughty boy", "I'm a designer and I'm ok, I sketch all night and present all day", "Just one more wafer thin feature" 

Personally, I'd like to see this as a keynote…

@jmspool: Please, please, please listen! I've 140 characters to say this. 
Twitterverse: Tell us! Tell us what it is! 
@jmspool: You don't NEED to follow ME, You don't NEED to follow ANYBODY! You've got to think for your selves! You're ALL individuals! 
Twitterverse: Yes! We're all individuals! 
@jmspool: You're all different! 
twitterverse: Yes, we ARE all different!
