Technophobia The psychological impact of Information Technology

 

In his book The Design of Everyday Things, Donald Norman describes how technology enables increasing functionality which in turn increases
complexity. He cites the example of a digital watch having far more functions than a traditional analog watch (stop-watch, alarm,
countdown timer, etc.) and yet being far more complicated to set the time (the original function).
