atw: Re: SEC: UNCLASS Are you content to be a 'content provider'?

Only problem is the term Information Architect which, when I first heard it, 
seemed to fit exactly what we do, has become the term for someone that does 
the structure and navigation for websites - which some of us may do as part 
of our job, but certainly does not encompass everything we do.
 There was an effort to differentiate small IA (as described above) and big 
IA (more in line with TW work) but the small IA definition seems to have won 
the battle to be identified with the term.
