This article is based on the premise that people correlate the number of features of a product to the simplicity of using the product. This isn't an accurate premise. A better description of the problem would be that features get added to products without much thought for how it integrates with usability. "The Design of Everyday Things" is a good book that addresses where and why design goes wrong. http://amzn.to/17Wew http://amzn.to/17Wew
- zb 16y agoI'm sorry, did you just say that Donald Norman doesn't know what he's talking about and then recommend that he go read his own book to find out why?
- chuckfouts 16y agoNo need to be sorry as you're absolutely correct.
- joshuacc 16y agoThis article is by Don Norman, who also wrote the book you're recommending. Perhaps you didn't read the article closely enough?
