I think everyone should read that little piece. It really sums up what graphic design is. Almost everything we use or see on a daily basis has, in some way, been affected by some sort of design technique. The website I'm writing this on, my keyboard layout and the typeface used on it, the logo on my laptop, etc, have all be touched and tweaked by designers.
There really are many disciplines that need to be understood to develop proficiency as a designer. In today's world a designer can't just be a pen and paper designer. Software is taking over many of the realms of design, which means that designers now have to become proficient in multiple forms of design. Software, hand-crafting, auditory, etc, all forms of design or conveying design must be mastered to succeed.
