Quote from the interview:
“SOA is very useful for gluing systems together, but it does not address the internal architectures of systems.”

(based on Under The Loupe #4: Keeping a Sketchbook)
A sketchblog is a blog used to store simple representations of ideas and concepts, the so-called sketches.
Jason Santa Maria says the following about design:
“Since design is about communication, much of the real design lies within the ideas behind it. Most times design is not created by the medium, it is created in the mind of the designer. The design is therefore only realized by the medium. One thing I have been reminded of over the years is that design and communication are both skills. Like any skill, the more you practice it, the more you will improve.”
and
“Designers need to be visual leeches, constantly cataloguing and recording information like a camera that’s always snapping photos. As designers we really never stop working, every thing thing we see, every thing we hear and experience shapes our creative process.”
He is talking about keeping a sketchbook. For me a sketchbook is too two-dimensional. I want to be able to connect my professional ideas to resources on the Internet. Also I want to share and reuse my ideas, and adapt them when I’ve gained new insight through my own or other people’s experience.
In short, I want my sketches to be adaptable, goal-oriented, informative, living and experience-driven (AGILE
