My guest today is Lou Rosenfeld. Alongside Peter Morville, Lou wrote the seminal book Information Architecture for the World Wide Web — also known as the polar bear book. In 2005, he founded Rosenfeld Media, where he and his team amplify user experience expertise through conferences and books, including my own Living in Information. In this conversation we talk about how Lou manages information to effectively coordinate the various workstreams at his company, including the upcoming Enterprise Experience conference.

This is episode zero of the show, which means I don’t have a guest. Instead, I talk about what we’re going to be doing here: what this show is about and why you may find it valuable to tune in. I also tell you a bit about myself and how I got into this topic, and what I’m planning to do with it. Hope you enjoy it!
