Christina: "Lots of interesting stuff in thsi series-- in particular the global IA session and its attendant implications I found fascinating. The session was less about IA and more about understanding, interacting with and perhaps even shaping culture via translation & internationaliation activities.
If you realize that categorization is essentially a framing activity, a la lakoff, then taxonomy translation (as opposed to localization) is an imperialist activity."
