This talk was about semantics and the discussions that happen between humans and computers, and computers and computers. As we try to fully understand knowledge systems and information stacks, designers can really design to users needs by utilizing some of these technologies. "All web designers code" is a bit harsh but all designers DO need to at least understand code and why semantic decisions are made. Every role on a product development team has their own level of semantic language and when we all try to at least understand that language, we can get out of the silo and try to work together. ]]>

Design: Sketching, Wireframes, and Prototypes describe a product, but the reasons for making design decisions are what makes up good design. If your design is not solving a problem, hang it above your couch. "Design in the absence of content is not...
