HCI and CSCW – is your usability too small
Recently heard some group feedback on our HCI textbook. Nearly all said that they did NOT want any CSCW. I was appalled as considering any sort of user interaction without its surrounding social and organisational settings seems as fundamentally misbegotten as considering a system without its users.
Has the usability world gone mad or is it just that our conception of HCI has become too narrow?
