Jeremy Keith adactio.com/journal/6786 reminds that improvements in the user interfaces can lead to a situation where tool replaces essential parts of thinking. When people no longer have to think what they are doing (or can’t see the process), a lot of other issues are created.

Good to re-read this. Great reminder how UX can turn evil.

I haven’t seen Google results with hidden URLs yet. That’s horrifying

I use the urls in search results all the time, I’m sad to hear they might be removing them.
