Intuitive


I heard that a project management app is easy to learn since it is "intuitive."

Apparently, I have the wrong intuition. Not that the app is bad. I like it. But I would like to talk to the designers about that intuitive part.

The old Word Perfect, which I loved, was very intuitive. You didn't need to go through arcane manuals written in French, Italian, and Hebrew to figure out how to proceed.

And then Word Perfect became more like non-intuitive Word and lost its soul. I haven't used it in years. Perhaps it has made a turn-around.

The drift toward the complexity must be vigorously opposed.
