Dear friends of interaction-design.org,

We are proud to introduce a new type of top-quality and free encyclopedia dealing with Interactive Design, Usability, and User Experience. It has taken the opposite approach of Wikipedia and crowd-sourcing: All entries are written by leading figures who either invented or contributed significantly to each topic. 

The new encyclopedia features video interviews which we flew around the world and shot at different universities. 

We make world-class educational materials available for free because we believe it's about the Democratization of Knowledge: That people from all the far corners of the world can get free access to world-class educational materials.  

But we need your help to spread the word! Please write about us on your blog and share a link on Facebook:

http://www.interaction-design.org/encyclopedia/ 

Have a great day!

All the best,

Mads and the rest of the people behind Interaction-Design.org:
