    UX is/should be much more comprehensive than the presentation layer.

    To me wireframing is the domain of a UI designer. Though I've seen UX people get their hands in here to.

    UX is kind of interchangable with flat out design thinking. Where the level of thought that would go into an aesthetic is put into every other aspect of the process. When I'm working on user experience as opposed to just designing pages I turn around different deliverables. User research, charts and diagrams, user flows that kind of shit.

    I tend to agree that UX has been way to much of a buzz word or catch all. It encompasses so many different disciplines. Researcher, Strategist, Content Strategist, Creative Director, UI Designer. I tend to think of the term as being bullshit when it is reference to a position. UX covers the entirety of the work. It's not an isolated piece.
