IxDA is a network dedicated to the professional practice of Interaction Design.!
                                                  !
                                                
Interaction Designers strive to create meaningful relationships between people and the
products and services that they use, from computers to mobile devices to appliances and
beyond. IxDA intends to improve the human condition by advancing the discipline of
Interaction Design. We rely on individual initiative, contribution, sharing and self-organization
as the primary means for us to achieve our goals.
