Simplicity Is Highly Overrated

I ran across Don Norman's article called "Simplicity Is Highly Overrated". It's exactly how I feel about today's products. Most of today's products contain way too many features and are therefore too complicated. I mean how many of the features do we really use? Dont get me wrong, I love features too. But when features start getting in the way of simplicity, that's where I draw the line.

Im a very simple person. I like things simple. I like things that make my life more simple. However, it seems that most of things that are suppose to make my life more simple actually does quite the opposite. Im mostly referring to technology and the internet. Seems like we are working more for them, then they are for us.

And that's where my blog comes in. My goal is to find technologies and websites that actually make our lives simpler. Im a lazy person and I want technology to do most of my work instead of the other way around.

So there you have it. I will blog about cool/useful web sites and write reviews on computers/electronics/services. I will tell you what I love and what I hate without holding back. And occasionally, I will post some crazy bargain deals as well as some not too personal stories of my life.
