Take, for example, my favourite piece of software at the moment, Nokia Lifeblog. I don’t have to do or know anything about my Smartphone to use it. I take my photos or videos, plug in the phone and there they are, on my PC, organised in a TimeLine with the messages that I have sent and received presenting me with a virtual account of my day! I mean, that’s just brill! It’s not efficient, it doesn’t make me work any better, quicker or quieter – it just does what it does, complimenting the way I do things (just look at my Moblog), enabling me to be who I am and not what I need to be to make it work.
