O Danny Boy  

Hello, My Name is Dan Saffer and this is O Danny Boy, my place on the internets since 1997.

I'm the author of the books Designing for Interaction: Creating Smart Applications and Clever Devices and the upcoming (Fall 2008) Interactive Gestures: Designing Gestural Interfaces.

I live and work in San Francisco where I'm an Experience Design Director at Adaptive Path.

There's also a section of extras that didn't fit anywhere else.

I also curate a collection of physical interfaces and parts on a site called No Ideas But In Things, and also oversee a wiki for collecting new interaction paradigms called Interactive Gestures.
