#Things to consider
- As we design for new methods of communication, we should remember that nothing is more valuable simply because it’s new; rather, technology is valuable when it brings us more of what’s already meaningful.
- Texting is the most compelling computer-human interaction going.
- The ideal interface is an interface that’s not noticeable at all—a world in which the distance from thought to action has collapsed and merely uttering a phrase can make it so.
- It’s impossible to design anything in the absence of goals because a clear goal is necessary to do anything called design.
- In interaction design, offering just what’s needed for the task at hand is called progressive disclosure.
