THATCamp SE 2011 in Atlanta (March 4-6)? Find twitter streams a bit overwhelming,

I'll also post links to people's notes, blogs and slides.

Dan Brown explains his 8 principles of information architecture, with occasional clandestine references to his 2009 IA Summit talks on Design Rules and Modelling Concepts.
Boykin gives 7 recipes for confusion and tips for avoiding them in web design. I've also embedded the hilarious cat food video he created that explains the importance of designing for the cat, not the owner.
"The number 1 rule of e-commerce: make it easy for people to give you money."
Learn the 2 Laws of Simplicity, 4 solutions for creating simplicity (with fun remote control images), and 6 strategies for simplicity in design. Or, as Albert Einstein explained, how to "make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible
without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single
datum of experience."
