My talk from JIF2010, in pictures |
The concept of the sessions was to look at the emerging threats and challenges facing institutions. I chose to think more in terms of new opportunities and how we might take advantage of them.
Let's begin by following on from my recent posting about the iPad. The conceit here is that the iPad has taken off because it meets most people's needs, most of the time. Whether or not you agree with this, it turned out that lots of people did want a big iPhone :-)
It may be worth reflecting on whether this owes more to an improved user experience through multitouch, or a reduction in the number of frustrating failure modes associated with a more complex device.
So, will Steve Jobs be on stage this time next year announcing a 27" iMac running iOS?
