Intrepid and uncharted

I tend to look at the world through a third lens. Chats, quotes, photos, text, videos, and much more round up what I explore. Design, technology and social changes have challenged me to pursue and share the dearth of discoveries that lay hidden in society - be it in reality or cyberspace.

JUST SWIPE

Clear…it’s a representative of a major leap forward in smartphone app design, as it’s been built from the ground up for the touch interface. The app is based solely on the use of now-common gestures: swipes, pulls and pinches. There are no buttons with Clear, and yet, it’s surprisingly simple to use. In fact, that’s the point.

“I used to think that technology could help education. I’ve probably spearheaded giving away more computer equipment to schools than anybody else on the planet. But I’ve had to come to the inevitable conclusion that the problem is not one that technology can hope to solve. What’s wrong with education cannot be fixed with technology. No amount of technology will make a dent. It’s a political problem.” Steve Jobs | 1996 interview with Wired.com (via courtenaybird)
