Im not talking about the quantity of my friends, but rather the breadth and depth. Im not sure if there was a specific tipping point for me, but I was certainly amused when one of my friends informed me that Im personally responsible for making her waste more time on Facebook than she ever thought possible.

And by asking this, Im not suggesting that design isnt important, for it is - its seen by some as part of the pedagogy. As a simplistic example, if I had to cut corners, Id probably cut those for high-end graphics in order to build richer examples, rather than skimping on examples so as to have production-value graphics.

There seems to be a mix between contract and full time positions, and Im not sure how to read into that. One of the products that my company creates are Flash based eLearning templates. Is this rolled right into the product or is that consulting expertise considered extra? Are designers beginning to help others author content?
