Considering the highest percentage of population peaks the bell curve at around 25 words per minute, it’s not hard to see why.

UI, specifically mobile UI, has broken barriers that formerly withheld technophobes from relying on technology to the extent they are today. And it’s a great first step, but until desktop class applications, and systems find another form of input, there will still exist a broad bell curve where the average consumer is hindered by the simple action of typing.

Just as I learned to type at the speed of thought by being social, it makes sense the next generation will continue to do so too. I only worry about limited access to technology, concurrent with the slow adoption of technology standards being taught.

It’s hard being on the cutting edge of technology, and having to look back to see the amount of people left behind.
