Is there any relationship between information architecture and creation?? or is that too deep of a philosophical question?

It looks a bit heavy going, right? Yeah, being an Information Architect is fulfilling but I've had a few unexpected negative reactions when I tell people that I am an IA. I guess they think it is a pretenious title that I made up for myself. *shrug* It could be that in Japan, there aren't many IAs. Shay,

Yeah, being an Information Architect is fulfilling but I’ve had a few unexpected negative reactions when I tell people that I am an IA. I guess they think it is a pretenious title that I made up for myself. *shrug* It could be that in Japan, there aren’t many IAs.

As a sort of web designer, I'd like to strive to be an 'information architect'. Knowing oneself by that title seems fulfilling.

It's not perfect, I might take some time to edit and refine it a bit. Yes, IA is a better approach to web design. I practice light-weight IA which fits in better with the timescales of web design. Maybe I will write a few more articles in the future on the subject of light-weight IA. Kengo, Thanks for the nice comments again. It is always nice to hear how other people think about their jobs and their job titles. The best thing about a blog compared to just a web site is that there is a sharing of minds. Ben,
