Whats it all about?

Piehead
(also known as Philip Slade)
    gets rather excited by the world around him. This is a record of the stuff he finds. Most is haphazardly filed as either 'Home' or 'Work' The difference generally being whether it features: rants about brands and marketing or Alice (14) and Jake (13) or very occasionally the Fish.

Having struggled with Dyslexia all his life, Philip now admits that spelling and grammar will be skills mastered in the next life

Great idea, too many features

I was showing this amazing new desk top environment (bump top) to the fish. She pointed out there are just to many features. She is absolutely right. the thing is quite amazing but the true beauty is its most basic operation. It is a classic case of someone getting too close to there subject and forgetting the user, In this case non web 2.0 natives who could use this idea to file and sort there digital lives like a pro. The First minute of the demonstration is all most people would want. Stuff all the menus, 'lasso piles' etc. what really appeals is a 3D desktop that acts just as your real desk, Piles of stuff only you can recognise the order of.
