People love seeing themselves as Miyazaki characters. I do too. But there’s a gap between making delightful pictures and creating business value. AI can be so much more. My take: https://jarango.com/2025/04/01/dont-let-the-drawings-distract-you-ai-is-not-about-the-output/
Proposals, quotes, transcripts — if it helps someone make a decision, it’s information. Seeing your business as a set of information flows will help you unlock AI’s potential. More in my latest post: https://jarango.com/2025/04/01/dont-let-the-drawings-distract-you-ai-is-not-about-the-output/
What can AI engineers learn from information architects to create better products? Conversely, what can IAs learn from engineers? And does information architecture matter at all in a world where AI exists?

Ever wonder how U.S. highways are numbered? It’s not random; there’s a system.
I know—nerdy. But cool if you like this kind of thing.

I miss websites with search. Perhaps it's a case of more sites being delivered as static sites? MovableType solved static sites with search... Perhaps organizations have just given up? I don't want to build CMSes (alert: lie detected) but I miss when websites were expected to have a CMS behind them, and things like categories, tags, and search were expected. #cms #informationarchitecture

For whatever reason, my 3-year-old piece about the etymology of “godspeed” is suddenly getting some new traction. So I thought y’all might be interested, too.

What kind of dip goes with people? Should we ask the cannibals?
This is why you need a good IA/UX person on your team.
I'm thrilled my infographic "101 Derivatives of French Mother Sauces" made the longlist for the category "Arts, Entertainment & Culture" in the 2023 Information Is Beautiful Awards! I don't think it will make the shortlist as it's pretty competitive, we're competing against individuals, teams, studios and even agencies from orgs like Reuters, USA Today, MIT, and Harvard Engineering.
Here we go! Prints will go on sale after the competition wraps up, in case they're of interest.
The best part of doing this is now I want to try making every sauce at some point 
Infographic WIP: 101 Derivatives of French Mother Sauces.
There are 101 "elements" now. I just have to input the last of the ingredient revisions (some sauces have ingredients but they are placeholders), proof it, then it's done.
Having a hard time tonight so I'll finish the ingredient revisions tomorrow. I think I will cut it off at 77, adding more at this point will sacrifice the readability.

#Introduction. Hello!
My day job is designer of the #UserExperience variety. I think of myself as a #SystemsThinker and I believe in designing a solid #InformationArchitecture and #InteractionDesign before designing any screens.
My other interests are #HomeCooking, #knitting, and television. I like democracy, I like my progressive bubble and I don’t really like the flavor of today's capitalism.
