If you've gotten this far, you've already seen a few references to Experience Design. So what is it, exactly? On our business cards we have a line that says we are:

Everyone has ideas, they come to us usually when we aren't trying to have them – in the shower, in line at Starbucks, pumping gas. What we seldom do is push them to the next step…
