Albert Einstein on Simple
November 17, 2008
“Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” – Albert Einstein
Why did Google do so well in the beginning? Because it was so simple to use. A white page with their logo and a search box. You weren’t swarmed with choices to make like Yahoo and MSN.
Simplicity is a principle of success in business and in our personal lives. Instead of adding things to your life. Try taking something away.
Designers are big on making things simple and avoiding “feature creep”. They know when they are done when there is nothing left to take away.
