I started a discussion on Area51 about the UI merging. Please participate with the open mind.
I don't think it would work for the reasons I outline in my answer
Merging with anything else currently out there except UXExchange (a SE1.0 site) is a very bad idea. I still think UI/UX belongs in a forum and not the SE model.

What part of the SE model do you feel wouldn't fit UI/UX ? For example, I personally prefer UI.SE because it is connected to the other SE sites unlike UXExchange. – wildpeaks Feb 17 '11 at 18:09

@user2891 - UI/UX is far more often a discussion - not a Q&A type topic. Stack Exchange (1.0 OR 2.0 - so UXExchange is included in that) is a platform for Q&A, not discussion. As such - neither UI.SE or UXExchange should actually exist using this platform - they would both be better served by a forum. – Charles Boyung Feb 17 '11 at 19:21

1I see, good point indeed. In that case, a site like Quora may fit your wishes better then. – wildpeaks Feb 17 '11 at 19:51
I completely agree with the answers of both @ChrisF and @Aaronaught.
