Do we need more conversations?... I doubt it. :) Conversations *could* be useful, but that would mean taking the *LONG* (very long) road.I've always had interesting conversations with my parents, but they still know little, close to nothing, about me.I would really like to know why do you think conversations would be "a lot" better.PS: I'm a little confused about the part with "argument their point of view." If you want to know more about me, why would I need to argument who I am? Whether you agree with who I am or not, you know who I am. That was the point of the interview. The argumentation part *could* follow, in the form of a conversation. One question for you, Lukiano: if conversations are a lot better, why do we know so little about each others and about ourselves?

I would really like to know why do you think conversations would be “a lot” better.

I'd really like to contradict with you but this time you're absolutely right. But (yes, there's a but :D ) I don't think people should find out things about each other with the help of interviews, conversations are a lot better. Plus, I would feel awkward if someone would interview me. Instead,both persons could answer questions and (very important) argument their point of view. Oh my God! I’d really like to contradict with you but this time you’re absolutely right.

The interview must be done with passion, because the point of it is to get to know the other person better - not to write a lifeless article for a magazine.I interviewed my mother and the 'results' were really surprising! I still have a lot of other people to go. :PThanks for commenting! Hi Douglas,

I like the idea of conducting an interview. I think many people may be flattered that you ask them for an interview. When doing the interview, though, make sure you listen to their answer and don't simply wait for them to stop talking, just so that you can jump in with your next question.Doug www.dougwoods.com A great article.
