These are great links for overall web design and development, including interface and interaction. I find A List Apart very good for visuals such as layout, hierarchy, and typography. Good choices, thanks. Hi James, thanks for those. These are great links for overall web design and development, including interface and interaction.

I'm inclined to think that the danger lies more in treading the domains of knowledge to which I am unfamiliar, rather than the cobbled roads of Chiapas—that always seems a more tenuous, though equally exciting, journey for me. I like the sport metaphor (didn't know Gadamer played tennis), and it also speaks clearly to the notion that I try to impress about the iterative process of design when I talk about <i>play</i> in that context. Cheers, Christopher Hi Bruce, thanks for the comment.

You are undertaking a fascinating -- and perhaps dangerous -- study. The stuff about play in Gadamer connects up with his reading of Nietzsche and Freud (eternal recurrence, and repetition compulsion). My sense is that Gadamer (the tennis player) had in mind the back and forth movement that you describe, and the way in which that repetition of movement becomes unconscious, maybe in the way people talk about remembering how to ride a bicycle, or the way athletes talk about muscle memory. It becomes not so much a matter of conscious willing as allowing a former state to return. I look forward to reading more on your blog. Thanks again, Bruce Thanks for that post, Christopher.
