Nine Hot Consumer Technologies You Can't Ignore
Like it or not, these much-discussed technologies are going to have a significant impact on your IT department.
Nintendo's Wii
Anyone can play! Really!
Wii makes it easy for everyone to play.
A game console with an interface so intuitive that parents can actually stay competitive with their kids while playing? Who'd have thought it possible? But the Wii's motion-sensing control wand and value pricing have made it the hot new game console, despite lengthy production delays and the fact that the games themselves often lack the glitz and flash of those on Sony's much more expensive and less intuitive PS3. It's proof that substance can overcome style, and that thoughtful design can win people over even if other pieces of the technology puzzle don't look quite as cool as the other players on the block.
Why You Should Care: User interfaces so simple people actually like to use them? That's a lesson that we all could stand to learn every once in a while.
