[Core Tip] The real use of human weaknesses is laziness should be to allow machines and algorithms to try to replace humans, make life more intelligent and more automated, rather than make people themselves become more lazy.

Three years ago, the Geek Park has a use of human weaknesses of the Internet series of observation articles, in turn from the "greed", "Lust", "vanity", "peep", "lazy" and other angles to the gap between the various Internet products how to use the weakness of human nature to promote, forward.

Three years later, Internet products have become a broad term, in addition to the narrow range of Internet products, it also includes mobile internet products, wearable equipment and the emergence of the Internet in the past two years of thinking of the new hardware. In these three years, although the Internet product definition is broader, the weakness of human nature has not been compensated. This paper is to reinterpret the fifth article of the series: laziness.

As previously said, laziness is human nature, everything makes things more simple and efficient products or services are more or less in the use of this nature, because any excellent user experience, must be to meet the lazy human nature.

And in three years, the mobile Internet for our life change is the most basic necessities, then see what changes.

Clothing

First of all about clothing, these three years is still mainly offline entity shop add online Taobao way. For the line, the Mushroom street, beautiful said and stroll to a certain extent, many women from the chaos of Taobao liberated, this select shopping guide for Taobao but also can not start the lazy girl is a new service.

And for the offline, the Kinect is still in the exploration of the application, now you can quickly virtual a 3D fitting room to easily and quickly try on a variety of clothes, see the two demonstrations: the Kinect fitting, the Kinect 3D fitting room. In addition to the Kinect, the domestic cat also last year's annual meeting also announced the adoption of a new virtual enhancement technology (AR) to achieve online shopping test wear, to help users form a real touch, experience the effects of product wear and texture. Both the Kinect and the AR are making it quicker to try the most tedious process of buying clothes.

In addition to the complex can not calculate the female physiological needs, these three years also have such as aunt, grapefruit assistants and other applications, lazy girls please check.

Food

Find a Restaurant

This is not much to say, has been walking very slowly in the public comment is caught in the other than to find food and the toilet outside the basic will not move a few lazy people's hard demand. (another may be Oh Baba Olo)

Ordering

Use the public comments to find a meal, if it is a good person, but if it is a group of people dinner, then ordering is a more painful process. First a variety of "casual" coping and then forced to point each person or a person at a time casually point out, will be small half an hour to waste on a la carte is very common things. This is unacceptable to lazy people, but fortunately now has a "tomato fast" application.

The tomato's fast founder, Huang Wei, introduced the app in the Geek Park event: Determine a few people after dinner, click the "Help Me Order" button, the application will be based on the number and meat and vegetables, the proportion of the automatic recommendation of a menu (the menu is not satisfactory can shake a shake and match). This process takes only 10 seconds, and all you have to do is click the button.

Order Takeout.

Can get out of the house in fact, the strict sense is not too lazy people, to know that there is a life on Earth called otaku curtilage female creatures, and selling is to degenerate into the source of this creature. For this group of lazy to the ultimate species, the takeaway in the past few years also follow the mobile internet, have been hungry, easy to sell as a representative of all kinds of takeout applications, mother no longer have to worry about my phone call out.

Live

If I had been on a business trip three years ago, I would have had to book the hotel a few days ahead to give it a little snack. So three years later, even when you're on a business trip, you don't have to worry about booking a room when you go to bed (except for certain holidays, such as Valentine's Day).

Because in addition to the ticket at the same time where to go, Ctrip can be scheduled, there are a variety of more vertical fast Hotel butler, hotel talent and tonight hotel specials, such as a variety of hotel applications and even maps and other applications, and not only in their corresponding mobile phone applications can be directly scheduled, but also in the micro-letter book. This is the time to open a room for a few 10 seconds.

In addition to the narrow sense of living in the open room, the broad sense of living also gradually let the lazy people become happier, such as the following:

can use mobile phone to control light switch, brightness and color of intelligent lamp Phantom;

As simple as the light on the Internet without setting the "lazy Man" router pole routing hiwifi;

Just plug it into your computer and turn the computer connected to the wired network into 360 portable WiFi at the access point.

Do not buy the so-called smart TV only need to connect TV and WiFi can turn ordinary TV "into" Smart TV millet box, Chromecast, etc.;

can use gestures to control the computer Leap Motion;

An intelligent jumping egg that can be separated by a remote control for gesture manipulation;

Yes

Taxi

Three years ago, if you wanted to take a taxi, you'd either go to the curb and call the taxi company and call all the drivers on the radio, and if you're lucky, maybe one of the nearby will pass, but most of the methods are more suitable for the three or four-line small town area. And now to tick, shake a taxi for the representative of many of the taxi application has been rapidly spread to each taxi, want to take a taxi in advance, just open the phone on the taxi application on the line.

For the lazy people do not want to transfer to the subway, although the policy is still relatively gloomy, but compared to the previous, now taxi this matter has undoubtedly been convenient and quick many.

Transport

If your understanding of the transport artifact is still in the Segway as the representative of the two-wheeled balance car, you are already out of date, which has become more and more convenient for the simple electric unicycle solowheel. Compared with the Segway with a double wheel, the Solowheel is certainly more suitable as a vehicle for the lazy people in the city.

In this year on the street has been on the Solowheel or the motherland version of the Solowheel (IPS, Airwheel, etc.) like a hot steamer floating in the street, the high level of the scare. The picture shows the audience's test drive at the MacWorld Solowheel Park exhibition.

Blessed is the lazy man of the rich.

With the real rise of mobile internet in recent years, there seems to be a new internet revolution on the wheel. Three years ago, the car embraced the internet/mobile Internet is still very small, and now talk about cars will be Tesla, intelligent car system hanging on the tip of the tongue, how the car as a big smart terminal to look at the current automotive industry's hottest topic. The car as a travel is also becoming simple to operate (Google's driverless car is on the road!). For more details, please see the internet car in Geek Park.

Learn

For college students, it is impossible to write down a different timetable for each semester, and it is not a matter of taking photos on the phone every day, as it is even more troublesome for lazy people to use Google Calendar and other GTD applications. For these lazy people, you need to recommend an application called the course grid. Use it, just select your school, department, major, age can see your classes, and then according to your own choice of a few simple clicks can generate your semester curriculum.

The picture is a screenshot of the previous version, the recent course grid has been updated to 3.0 new, more exquisite design

In addition to the course grid, there is also called the super timetable of the application, in addition to the similar course grid function and the educational system import function, input your number and password old can automatically take the course down. With these applications, my mother never had to worry about laziness because I didn't remember the timetable.

Lazy and lazy people

The real use of human weakness should be to let machines and algorithms try to replace humans, make life more intelligent and more automated, so that people save some unnecessary work, rather than let people themselves become lazy. So don't forget the body movement and brain thinking in this process.

We should enjoy the convenience of technology rather than be enslaved by it.
