You'll generally find us at Coffee Guru in Woden around 9AM - we'll be
the ones in the suits :)

Seriously, though, I think that the labels are so shopworn as to be
useless - I am a Consultant, I do IA, I use techniques that some might
call usability, sometimes it is more strategic than tactical. The
labels are conveniences, and we need to be able to slough them off
when we talk amongst ourselves.

Cheers, Andrew
