I'd like to see an article that explains the difference between UI design and UX design, with examples.
The problem there is that if you ask three different designers you'll get at least four different answers ;-)
UX is a relatively new term. Coined by Don Norman on 1993 for his role at Apple it's morphed and tweaked in the intervening time and still means different things to different folk. The Elements of UX diagram from Jesse James Garrett is as good a definition as any http://www.jjg.net/elements/pdf/elements.pdf.
UI Design used to be generally read something as a pretty broad domain - similar to UX - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface_design for example. However, I sometimes see it used now to refer to somebody with a narrower speciality of doing the visual design work on interfaces that have been designed by others.
The communities of practice are still rapidly evolving. Hard and fast definitions don't really apply.
