It actually doesn’t get that much easier over time, either.

Outlook’s Ribbon interface is great for finding everything you might ever want to do in the email, contacts, and calendaring program — particularly things you don’t do frequently, like using the mail merge feature. But if you’re looking to do common tasks fast, you’ll find keyboard shortcuts far more useful.

Apple’s Vision Pro enters a troubled market. I say troubled because people have so far largely rejected head-mounted devices. Though before the iPod arrived, the market didn’t care much for digital music players, and before the iPhone, people didn’t care much for screen-based phones. So this should be familiar territory for Apple. The iPod and the iPhone were both Steve Jobs-launched products — and after Jobs, you must stretch to find similar success, let alone a break-out product like the iPod

Marketing strategies have evolved significantly over the years. In the early days, outbound marketing was the go-to method for businesses looking to reach potential customers.
