(Nathaniel Davis ~ DSIA Portal of IA)
Information Overload, Reloaded
“Contemporary information architecture can help reframe how we approach this thing called information overload. In this article (…) Nathaniel Davis, founder and curator of DSIA Research Initiative and DSIA Portal of IA, leads the discussion on behalf of contemporary information architecture. He repositions information abundance and filter failure as signatures of information overload. Davis then suggests how information overload can be quantified as two unique conditions that are ideal for further investigation in theory, research and practice to better understand their influence on providing sound information architecture recommendations.”
