Where are all the information designers?

"Information Design has arguably been around since man could first scribble on cave walls, but the term has only gathered recognition within the last 25 years. For those of you unfamiliar with the term, the Society of Technical Communication (STC) Special Interest Group on Information Design provides the following definition:

'The field of information design applies traditional and evolving design principles to the process of translating complex, unorganized, or unstructured data into valuable, meaningful information. The practice of information design requires an interdisciplinary approach which combines skills in graphic design, writing and editing, instructional design, human performance technology, and human factors.'
