WHY SHOULD WE TALK ABOUT PLACES?!
We don’t create websites or aps - we create places made of information: “Sign In” - “Log out” - “Go to the Check out”""Consider (and be intentional) about how language, content, and the organization of information makes different places""Need to talk about places made of information in context with the other places our digital projects will be existing""Practitioners should talk about it with one another and with the people we work for and with""""
WHY? !Places
inform who we are!

In instances where resources are limited, scope is not yet defined, or the strategy is not yet firm, consider creating purpose-driven controlled vocabularies or smaller section specific taxonomies. !!!Eventually, they will lend themselves to being woven into in a comprehensive, purpose-driven master taxonomy, when the structure actually needs to be there.!!

“Sell your expertise and you have a limited repertoire. Sell your ignorance and you have an unlimited repertoire. !!He was selling his ignorance and his desire to learn about a subject. The journey of not knowing to knowing was his work.”!
