I recently attended a workshop headed by Peter Jones of reDESIGNreSEARCH whose company focuses on better design through in depth research. He also manages a website Designing with Dialogue which promotes a Toronto-based ‘dialogue community of practice’ which advocates better methods for communication.

Jane Fulton Suri of IDEO
I recently went to see Jane Fulton Suri speak at the Ontario College of Art and Design, she is the Chief Creative Director of IDEO which is a California-based design firm. She comes from a background in human factors psychology and architecture and is a one of the people championing and trying to evolve human-centred design methods. She has been a contributing author for several periodicals and also published her own book, ‘Thoughtless Acts?’.
Editorial Markup

Stages of an Online Project
One of the very first important issues I had to deal with when starting my first business was how to effectively manage a client through a project. At first the jobs were relatively small, so I reinvented the wheel with each of my clients, but that quickly became tiresome and besides I was focusing on the business fundamentals of project timelines more than that of the creative. Then the jobs became larger and more complex and I knew I had to make some time and figure out a process description that would allow me to handle any potential project.
