Minute44 - Dan Schonhaar

Just a quick one today in response to Andy Clarke’s tweet about strangers on a train wanting to play with his iPad. It got me thinking about how quick we web people are to label average Joe as stupid because he or she isn’t as quick to pick up technological stuff as we are. First, though, a couple of points. I hold Mr. Clarke in the highest esteem. I’ve followed his work for years and even seen him speak about his craft. As such this isn’t a personal dig, it was simply his comment that lead me to write this. Secondly, I know I am guilty of doing this; I’m not saying I’m innocent. Hell, anyone who knows me knows damn well I am the most judgemental and cynical of bastards. I need to change, too.
