A lazy Sunday

Posted by Jim as Editorial

This is not a review, neither is this a rave or a rant. I may just call this my way of just passing time. But don’t worry, i’ll somehow bring this back to the tech talk we like here at gadzooki.com .

Sunday afternoon, it was my time to just bum around in a cafe. Brought my macbook with me to see the podcasts I’ve missed viewing this week. After getting my fill from http://mahalodaily.ning.com and http://www.geekbrief.tv , I fired up Mail to check if there’s something in my inbox.

Well, got the usual junk stuff of course, but before I was able to hit the delete key the graphic above caught my eye.

I was sooo laughing.

Taking a step back though, and after braving my best not to spew coffee from laughing… isn’t the graphic almost largely true?

We are now seeing the fact that tech companies are “fashioning” their products to appeal to a mass feminine base. Apple is being very evident with this by releasing theirs with hues of pink, red… pastel colors.

Look at http://www.popgadget.net . It’s a website full of gadgets, lifestyle and tech stuff for women. Kudos to that blog by the way.

I think the day has almost come when women would like to see more buttons on their tech craves than men. Most men would probably like them too, but I’ve seen to many who at the end of the day would just use the on/off switch! women on the other hand would most likely be very intent on using the functions of say a palm Treo.

They’re a growing breed!

Great, if stereotypical, picture. I’d say the woman one looks unneccessarily complicated!
