John Maeda is a Professor of Media Arts & Sciences at MIT Media Lab. His most recent blog is an exposition of his 16 laws of simplicity - a combination of insights, musings, proto-philosophy and quaint observations. Simplicity in interface design is a hot topic right now, so it makes for interesting reading. And even if the notion of 16 laws whiffs of arrogance, there are probably few people better qualified to comment on the topic.
