Title: Playing in the "Human-Computer Interaction Interface"(HCII)
Post by: Popkeymon on Mon, 04 April 2011, 09:17:37

I suddenly found that what I have been playing for months and years are what was known as the human computer interaction interface, or man-machine interaction.

We are actually interested not in how letters, symbol and number are arranged on the keyboard, but in how human can interact better with computing machine!

It's funny that you mention this. I found HCI via wikipedia a few years ago as well, and was fascinated that all the nerdy mousing/typing/dvorak-ing I was into actually had an established area of study. Immediately changed my major and here I am today. Good times.
