| schestowitz | "It very much comes down to innovation,productivity,awareness,confidence and personal values...although here im stating the obvious. Each person is at a different stage of the technolgical spectrum and there will be an application to suit...if you are interested in innovation you most probably aware of all the different platforms and that any GUI is not the app...you can change,alter and develop and understand whether the | Apr 06 20:55 |
| schestowitz | underlying code is robust,or flexible etc depending on what use you have for it. Peoples geekiness is generally a lot higher than say twenty years ago,and with regards to computer literacy we have (shudder to think! :s) Apple,Microsoft,Facebook and Twitter etc to thank for this. However i still meet people who are stumped by even sending an email..any attempt to teach them is met with a begrunging resentment that society is | Apr 06 20:55 |

| schestowitz | are a small business with a high turn over of staff,the familiarity of the platform,will be paramount. Speaking personally,ive only been using IT for a few years,and due to its use i gained a growing appreciation of mathematics and science,due to the frustration of Microsoft's registry system ,i turned to Mepis Linux and learned the new structures and im still learning.As personal values go,it is highly unlikely i would buy | Apr 06 20:56 |
| schestowitz | groceries from Wall-Mart,so this reflected in other choices i make. No platform or application is a sacred cow,it will change,who uses MySpace now?The biggest danger for Diaspora is the innovations made will be picked up by a new start-up (its already happened with Google+!).. but the fact of the matter,most people will be stuck in their ways,its human,and most will want familiarity,unless they train themselves better to be | Apr 06 20:56 |
