For instance, Danielle has grown up with computers for her whole life, she takes them for granted (and I have to regularly remind her they are relatively new).
As a very young girl, she could usually operate most software without thinking, because it is natural for her,
but every now and then she will come across some software that needs some extra thought before she can operate it......or she will have to stop and 'actually' read the pop up boxes before she can move on to the next screen (usually she will anticipate what the pop up boxes will be asking, and will already know what the answer should be....always impatient to get past all the setup or entry stuff).
And in response she complains about it like it is the end of the world or something........(ungrateful teenagers......haha)
Obviously, that is the software which is not 'intuitive'
the other thing Danielle (and her mother) complain about is internet speed (even though our speed is quite reasonable most of the time)......they just get soooo impatient sometimes, and start to stab away at the buttons.......which actually only confuses the computer or iPad, and slows the process down even further....and when I point that out they just complain that I am too logical........
haha
cheers

Hey Jako. Hope you are well.
I have a couple of mates designing some predictive analysis software for trading platforms and asked me what is the best program or app to plug in data scans etc for the ASX. These guys are not based in Aus and their depth on the programming is beyond my scope. Was wondering if you had any suggestions on best way for them to get data easily (freely at this stage) so they can beta test their work.
