Powerful Tools and Simplicity

Principles from Ubiquitous Computing

From "Computer Science Challenges for the Next 10 Years" (Mark Weiser 1996)

  • The purpose of a computer is to help you do something else.

  • The best computer is a quiet, invisible servant.

  • The more you can do by intuition the smarter you are; the computer should extend your unconscious.

  • Technology should create calm.
