Attention: Easy Site

"So put yourself in your reader's shoes: If you were a stranger arriving at your own site, would you feel as if the site's creator had made a special effort to make life easy for you?" (Kilian, 24)


Alright, so it's probably just my nature, but I like to be challenged a little every now and then when I'm surfing the internet. I rather like coming across a new idea or strong commentary that might get up in my face and lay down "supposedly" hard facts. However, I also like the occasional piece that will bring me around slowly and make me think for myself.

What I'm really getting at is this: Is not our society already entirely focused on making life easy? One could argue that by striving towards goals that would make life easier for the masses is in fact great work. But what happens when these problems/minor annoyances are solved? Will we merely have to come up with new ones? No one probably knows at this point and I somehow doubt that these words will still be floating around in cyberspace if humans ever manage to answer these questions.

I'm all for user-friendly technology, including easy to figure out websites. Every so often though, it's nice to have a little challenge presented across one's desk; just to see if one's still up to the task of thinking for oneself. I suppose that's my main point: Don't always go by what others tell you, think for yourself and you might just find something amazing.
