Quotation of the Day for October 26, 2011



"It's supereasy. It's like learning to use toothpaste. At Google and all these places, we make technology as brain-dead easy to use as possible. There's no reason why kids can't figure it out when they get older."

- Alan Eagle, who works in executive communications at Google, on why computers aren't needed in elementary schools. Eagle's children attend Waldorf Schools in Silicon Valley, where computers are not allowed in classrooms.
