Dineh M. Davis
Abstract
This issue's Whiteboard takes a bit of a different tack from past columns. Rather than exhorting us to follow process A or stop making mistake B, Dineh Davis immerses herself in the almost mystical idea of water as a metaphor for information. She envisions water as helping us understand and appreciate the diversity in humanity's relationships with information and its technology, enabling us to increase user participation in its development. Now, you may see some problems with this idea. But I'd say that they're, er, soluble.<br>---Elizabeth Buie
