metaphor
Only in terms of other things
A renaming of the already named
The door handle is the handshake of a building
The strange familiar and the familiar strange
An emblem of friendship
Metaphors We Web By
Websites are not living rooms and other lessons for information architecture
Negative Creativity
Art is memory's mise-en-scène
On the "Building" of Software and Websites
You are agreeing to make a Thing
The Thing-deadline calculus
Trees and graphs
Content as value
The most important consideration for any software or web excursion is content: the content of the text and other communicative media, as well as the content of the code that executes the business processes. The ability to tick off a page or piece of functionality as being done only produces a nominal successful result; the careful crafting of what one of these objects says produces a real one.
