From an email I sent to somebody concerned about bitcoin usability just a couple of days ago: @p{par}

Making the reference Bitcoin application more usable isn't a high priority for me right now. @p{par}

The high priority is making it safe to use, even if your computer gets infected by malware. I @p{(bf}WANT@p{bf)} it to be hard and geeky to use so only geeks who are able to keep their computers secure run it. @p{par}

Also, the "download and run software on my computer" way of doing things is dying. The vast majority of ordinary users will be using Bitcoin on their smart-phones or through a web browser in the near future.... @p{brk}
