So my new thing is to design or make digital products with a Post-it premise; that is, a simple, single-function device.

The objective has to be written in seven words. Ideally the technology exists… no custom programming for me!

I’ll be the next digital MacGyver. (Gen Y? Google it.)

*under optimal conditions.

This presentation resonated with me. For a harassed mum, FlavourCrusader will be a productivity tool.

For a social foodie/ethical shopper it’s more fun. They’ll be developing food skills; level one is identifying good ingredients by flavour and other properties. Sweet, juicy, crunchy, easy-to-peel etc. There’ll be game mechanics around this.

So it’s like an Alessi kitchen utensil. How you see it depends on how you use it.
