The Technology Adoption Debt
I am guilty many times of rushing to judgement about how widespread technology adoption is among the general population in the US. I often presume that because I know about and use great technology every day that most everyone else is doing the same.
It’s simply not true. There is a significant portion of the population that doesn’t know anything about Dropbox or GMail or dozens of the other time-saving, productivity boosting applications that I take for granted.
The amount of time spent on doing things the hard way, simply because the better way is not known, is overwhelming. The good news is that the opportunity to make a difference is equally large.
