explaining IA

Hey all,
I found myself writing another brief explanation of what I
do: "I do
information architecture
consulting, and what that really means is that I help people
work out
product ideas in enough detail to start getting the coders
involved."

 haha,
it's funny how my explanations of what it is I do keep
evolving...

Now, depending on your audience, what is the difference
between:
IA, Business Analysis, System Architect, User Experience
Architect,
User Interface Designer, Usability Engineer and Interaction
Design?
(to name a few).

Now I could see how this question may be irrelevant to your
needs
right now, but just since this is a discussion list and all
...

It does sound like your phrasing below could be any of that.
Nothing
particular very "I" in the IA definition you
propose.
