Don’t Underestimate Your Audience

Don’t Underestimate Your Audience

We underestimate our audience all the time. That’s even more true when it comes to technology. As I type this blog, the lady sitting next to me is reading a book on her second-generation Kindle. She’s well into her 70’s.  One of the perpetuating myths I run across often is (Continue reading…)
