About UsableMarkets

UsableMarkets is my venue to talk about things that interest me, which are, in a nutshell, information design, markets, and usability. My goal is to inform, educate, and provoke thinking. I am the first to admit that I don’t always succeed (but here’s to trying!).

The blog has been around since April of 2006, and I hope it runs for good while longer.

About Me (aka Alex Kirtland)
