So what is intuitivity anyway? There’s a lot of talking about intuitive interfaces, menus, etc. Mac users are always bragging about it anyway. When you think about it, intuitivity is a vague concept that we often use in the IT world. You know it has become a buzz word when it is used in the same sentence as Windows… Mobile or otherwise.
Microsoft demonstrated the “Touch Windows” this week and buzz words were flying all over the place: multi-touch, changing dramatically how you will interact with the system, touch-enabled, blah, bleh, blah. On this matter, I completely agree with James Kendrick who offered his thoughts on JKontherun. My laptop “Vista-Enabled” which I bought with tablet PC, sorry, “ink and pen gestures enabled with sideshow features, blah, blah, buzz, buzz” has not seen the outside of my bag in months. I wasted so much time trying to get friendly with Vista and the relationship failed so miserably that I swore to change platform. I just need more time and money (don’t we all, huh?).
