So much technology works, not by good design or by being a good fit
to purpose, but because people make it work because they have to
for some reason. We humans are incredibly creative and resourceful
when it comes to getting something done. There are numerous stories
we could all tell of the ingenious work-arounds we've developed to
make something do what we want it to; or the enormous amount of
time we've spent trying to find out how to make some technology
work as we want, e.g., trying to find out how to turn off
auto-editing commands in a word processing package when all we want
is for it to 'do what we tell it'. A good example of this principle
was what motivated me to switch from neural networks to the area of
Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) for my PhD research. I
had undertaken a case study looking at the deployment of a
multi-million dollar health information system throughout a
hospital network.
