Have you checked out the new Critical Mass blog, Experience Matters?  We’ve had it up and running for a couple weeks.  There’s a bunch of us, including David Armano, who are contributing to the blog.  Our goal is to turn some of CM inside-out to reveal how we think about planning and designing for compelling experiences, in addition to general commentary on relevant topics.

My first post is up.  It’s about collaborative design.  Here’s an excerpt:

At Critical Mass, we employ a couple of collaborative design methods that help our teams escape what I call the vicious cycle of review and revisions.
