Just read ' a smile in the mind' again. It really is one of the definitive design books around. I was totally amazed when some of our staff said they hardly ever read a book, instead getting all their information off the web.
What's wrong with that I hear you say.... it's something like the way that all the news programmes report the same events in the same way. Why? because they're taught to go online in their comfy warm office, and Google for information. Of course, they are using the same search terms so they end up with the same results.
So much for journalism degrees. I think that the media was better served by having people learn their trade (or profession) in the field, which lead to widely varying news coverage instaed of the current myopic view we all have now.
