Dear all,

Thanks to our authors who are working hard to give free and open access to the fruits of our community: "Knowledge wants to be free", as our slogan goes. 
-- 3. --
Thanks to our millions of readers for their constant encouragement and support. From New York to New Delhi. From Norway to Nigeria. 


And now to the news: On behalf of the team behind Interaction-Design.org, I'm pleased to announce the latest additions:

PURPOSE OF THE LIST:&nbsp; The objective of AIGA Experience Design is to bu=
ild an interdisciplinary community of professionals who design for a world =
in which experiences are increasingly digital and connected. This list has =
been established as a forum for the exchange of information among community=
 members.<BR>
<BR>
TO VIEW ARCHIVED MESSAGES: visit <a href=3D"http://groups.yahoo.com/group/A=
IGAExperienceDesign">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/AIGAExperienceDesign</a>=
<BR>
<BR>
ETIQUETTE: We ask that participants observe common principles of civility a=
nd e-mail etiquette in their postings. Specifically, it is more appropriate=
 to challenge ideas than individuals, and the list should *not* be used for=
 personal communications, self-promotion, commercial solicitations or job p=
ostings.<BR>
<BR>
JOB POSTINGS: Please post job listings on AIGA Design Jobs <a href=3D"http:=
