Technologically Challenged

The sort of people that find the simplest of everyday technological feats and gadgets to be a challenge in making sense and use of. Much unlike the technologically impaired duck meme and the first day on the internet grandma meme, these are all very real persons and there is a very real blog being written with them in mind (The Low Tech-IQ Blog)

Woah dude, this smartphone has gotten the best of me. Feels i'm a bit technologically challenged.

More Technology

I term used by people with an obvious lack of knowledge of the product they are selling to sound as if they know what they are saying.

Me: So why should I get these $900 tires over these $500 ones.
Idiot Salesman: Because, the $900 tires have more technology
Me: Ok there.

Me: Why should I get the Sony TV instead of the Panasonic?
Salesman: More technology.

Technological Tourettes

A syndrome in which one gets so incredibly infuriated by technology the emotion boils up in one monosyllabic outburst; usually the word FUCK! Most commonly suffered by I.T. personnel but also know to affect smartphone users and elderly people with more than one remote control.

Bob's lost spreadsheet induced technological tourettes and got him a three day suspension and a lot of dirty looks from his bible-thumping co-workers.

Technologically neutered

To strip technology of all meaningful features, thereby violating its original intent to solve problems in an automated way. This is typically done by an enterprise through a series of decisions made by folks with no understanding of technology, e.g. legal or risk. Fears that drive to these decisions are typically focused on trying to prevent behaviors through technology limitations, without isolating that the issue is the behavior. The end result will likely be a set of technology that looks similar to the current technology set, just with a different look and feel on top of a fundamentally rearchitected platform typically costing millions of dollars.

The approach would be equivalent to not allowing knives in the cafeteria for fear of stabbings vs not hiring people who won't stab each other. Only technologically neutering costs much more.

They technologically neutered the SharePoint environment by removing everything but the list and document library. It is no longer usable for its core collaboration functions.

We have technologically neutered our mobile email by not allowing attachments.

They technologically neutered their CRM by turning off the workflow features.
