The Analog Origins of the Apple Watch's Digital Crown

Welcome to more details , a recurring column in which we examine what purpose an often overlooked product element actually serves. This week: the digital crown of the Apple Watch. The Apple Watch is not just a miniaturized phone or tablet on a bracelet. It's an advancement of "smart" technology, yes, and the company's design DNA is obvious - but it also builds on centuries of traditional watchmaking, more than most people believe. The rectangle with rounded corners is a well-known Apple product profile. However, the silhouette of the Apple Watch differs from that of other devices in one essential feature: a protruding button on the right side. If you've used an Apple Watch, you know how intuitive this digital crown is: its dual role as a button and a dial makes it perform a number of functions in conjunction with the touchscreen - and another smaller side button - to help you control clock.

Most of these laws come from a good place: something bad has happened in the world and enough people believed it wouldn't go away on its own that they brought the problem to Uncle Sam. But because healthcare is such an important safety net role and the government is the biggest player in it - think Medicare and Medicaid and CHIP and the VA - the uncle went a little crazy. One area where healthcare innovations may encounter the unintended consequences of a well-intentioned law is the Ryan Haight Online Pharmacy Consumer Protection Act. It was enacted in 2008 to regulate internet prescriptions after Ryan Hai

(TNS) technology became a necessity for Linda Brandon when she owned Linda's Music in Decatur. "In the mid to late 1990s we were like, 'Okay, we have to do this, we have to get a computer' and we built one," said Brandon, who closed her store in 2020 and retired. "You couldn't just go to Best Buy and buy one like you do today." She recalls how she and Hugh Reeves were "kind of lost". But through trial and error, they found out. Today, educators often refer to students as “digital natives” because they have never known a world without computers, cell phones and iPads. Even a young child seems to know instinctively how to use them. But people who grew up with rotary phones, not cable TV, and before computers were in every home and office, had to learn to use them, and some still feel uncomfortable. In a world where even ordering from a fast food restaurant requires th
