| Abstract: | Pulling the unwired masses into the Information Age means gadgets must be as easy to use as the telephone. The great information-appliance race is on. The goal: to create electronic gadgets that are as simple as the TV but can instantly make the connection to the digital world. At giant corporations and in garages around the globe, the brightest minds in software, hardware, industrial design, linguistics, and cognitive science are working on devices that will make it possible to move vast amounts of information and make it all as easy as punching a button on a microwave. |
