Why hello there. You've stumbled upon
the Less Annoying Blog where we talk about all things related to software, business, and technology. This blog is written by
Less Annoying Software, a business that specializes in software development and consulting.
We believe that most software companies mess up some of the most basic aspects of their products. In order to gain widespread adoption, new technology only needs to strive for one thing: don't be annoying. Most companies spend all their time adding features when they should be making sure that the user experience doesn't suck. Great features don't matter if the users hate the product.
So that's why we started this project. When we develop software, we make something that users actually enjoy. With this blog, we will talk about how everyone can improve their experience with technology using the same basic principles that we apply to our designs.
Here's a little background about us:
Bracken
As of the writing of this post, Bracken is finishing up his PhD in biological engineering from MIT. His focus is on the computational side of things, so he's got tons of experience writing complex, powerful programs to help solve very challenging engineering problems. He also manages the servers for his lab, so he's no stranger to the infrastructure needs of organizations.
Tyler
I'm working at a software start-up company right now. As anyone that's worked at a tech start-up already knows, wearing multiple hats is part of the job. I handle I.T., graphic design, development, product management, and online marketing for my company.
So that's who we are. If you like the blog, we'd love to hear from you in the comments. You can also send feedback to
