technovice


someone who is new to technology. a non-geek.

anything new has a tendency to invoke fear, wariness and distrust. newcomers to the technoscene are commonly -ssailed with pejoratives: but we were all newbies once; and every one of us remains a noob in some field of human endeavour – n-body knows it all.

the term ‘technovice’ is a more polite, welcoming term. it says, “hi there friend, i see you’re new here, do you need a hand?” whereas “foad you loser n00b!” simply pollutes cybersp-ce.

the word can be read as ‘tech’+’novice’, describing the present state of the user’s knowledge (or rather, lack of it): but hidden within is the suggestion of things to come, when read as ‘techno’+’vice’ 🙂
“mandy’s a real technovice, i had to show her where the power switch was on her pc.”
