Human-Computer Interaction |
|
Imagine an architect who builds a house as per design principles. Also think about the different users he services. Each user has his own impressions of what he wants from a house. But due to marketing and sales promotion strategies the end product is thrust on the users. Similarly a computer is a human invention that is conditioned and worked on by computer engineers. The Internet is fashioned by a few people, but is used by so many others. For example why are there two backslashes in every URL we type? Why could it not be anything else such as a simple name? Why are we forced to sift thru zillions of bytes of data every time we browse the Internet? Can the web become more personal, just to suit our own needs? For example your dad may be an old timer who prefers to walk in the park rather than browse the web. Some friends keep discussing the Internet and how backward he is by not using it. Somehow he is forced to use the Web, just to be fashionable. So the designers of such technology carry an enormous responsibility of not misleading the users. |
