“The most profound technologies are those that disappear. They weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it.”

Writing is the first information technology Writing is ubiquitous. It is in books… But also street signs, graffiti, and candy wrappers. And we hardly notice it anymore.

Writing is the first information technology Writing is ubiquitous. It is in books But also street signs, graffiti, and candy wrappers.

Writing is so ubiquitous, it disappears.

“The most profound technologies are those that disappear. They weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it.”

3 Device Sizes: tabs, pads and boards

~100 tabs ~10 pads ~1 board

Tabs

Size: Location: Number: ~100 Uses:

  • doors open only to the right badge

wearer,

  • rooms greet people by name,
  • telephone calls can be automatically

forwarded to wherever the recipient may be,

  • receptionists actually know where

people are,

  • computer terminals retrieve the

preferences of whoever is sitting at them, and

  • appointment diaries write

themselves.

tabs” of 2018?

Pads

22

Size: Location: Number: ~10 “Pads differ from conventional portable computers in one crucial way. Whereas portable computers go everywhere with their owners, the pad that must be carried from place to place is a failure. Pads are intended to be "scrap computers" (analogous to scrap paper) that can be grabbed and used anywhere; they have no individualized identity or importance.”

Uses

  • Draw
  • Resize photots
  • “Maps”
  • ”menus”
  • “Share photos”
  • Control your TV.
  • “Casinos”

When designing ubiquitous computing, purpose matters.
