The Joy of Clicks

  It's all relative. There's enough wrong in the world that having an imperfect job in tough economic times is still a privilege that many would cherish.  And yet, in its own isolated context, the daily grind can genuinely feel like being physically ground down, minced, fragmented.  Which is why it's important to find a glimmer of joy where you can. And I found one this week, in the accidental coining of the word cliction, a portmanteau of click and friction,  while exploring the user experience of a new front end. It doesn't solve any global, or even local, problems, but it raised a few smiles and lifted a few eyebrows, and improved my mood. I hope sharing it can do the same for you.
