Why People Use Technology

---

There are two reasons why people use a new technology:

1. They can do something faster, cheaper, easier, or with better quality.
2. They can do something that wasn't previously possible.

There will always be a learning curve to new technology. When it fits with pre-existing activities, that's smaller. When it is about doing activities better to meet common ongoing needs, the possibilities are broad. Usually, it requires people to change (which we as a whole dread). Innovation that opens new possibilities has the longest lasting impact on the world.
