The Barriers in Place
I thought I’d take a moment to ask this…
Why do we still call the people “users” these days?
We, in IT, still tend to look down on our clients, bosses, and others because they don’t understand what it is that we do. Yet, at the same time, we’d think of a doctor as being a snob and make witty wisecracks about them still calling it, “their practice.”
I think one of the first steps would be to not call them “users” but I can’t think of what else to call them in many instances. Got any ideas?

I guess we could call them people but that doesn’t always make a lot of sense?
