Comments on: The Next 6 Billion

While I was just skimming the article after being directed, I came across Aral’s tweet and dived more into the subject. I do agree that the upgrades should be made more effective and its’ vendor’s duty to push them but really even in a shiny office of wonderfully civilised people sometimes they need permission to upgrade their software.

In addition to this not all browser updates comes without upgrading the system. (IE makes everything difficult).

And going back to the real meaning of it I agree with Alasdair for web to be accessible. Also if you really want to make 6 billion to engage in web, you need to make a content for them to engage. And content shouldn’t just rely on the technology to be engaging. Functions are important, but there is no point serving a Google map for an address when people do not have roads around (extreme example). Though as Quentin pointed out, the content is per project basis too and sometimes content people ought to come from the areas that they need to be serving to make it accessible and approachable. Unless you are a world wide all encompassing, goat insuring company for the shepherds of the world. But how will your service pass behind the luxurious veil of online functionality, that is a question to me.
