Remember, all you will hear at first are the positive attributes of any new technology because all the information is coming from its manufacturer. Get beyond the surface meanings of the buzz words. Roszak reminds that voluminous information can obscure basic questions and may even hinder rather than enhance productivity. Be wary of the engineering elite. One does not have to be an engineer or computer nerd to assess how technology might be best applied to a given job.
Common sense is a far more valuable commodity.
This is a revolutionary time. That the era of new technology has brought with it a newly level playing field and anyone with a good idea can come out on top. Much of the fear of technology is fueled by the false notion that only those with technical skills can be the winners.
