Best Products of 2007 Praveen is blogging about his favourite products of 2007. Here's what I said about the iPhone:

I think we've seen with Apple that, once again, they have created a truly transformational product in the iPhone. It transforms the user experience, in that people think of it differently than they do, say, a Nokia phone. It's no longer a phone, it's an iPhone--and the connection with it and the way it connects to users' lives is radically different.

See Alan Cooper's keynote from interactions '08: here

I'm sure we can think of others as well, but the iPhone is definitely transforming how people communicate, and how they think about their communication devices.

Savannah!
What a great town! Beautiful, well-restored (other than the huge hole in the ground next to our hotel), and yet "real," somehow.
Too, the ixda conference is going well.

Lack of Recognition
Despite a lot, a lot of hard work, I am not being recognized professionally. Depressing.
