Henrietta is a 55 year old who isn't very good with computers, but is comfortable browsing the internet, using search engines, and typing in URLs. She has a vague idea about things like bookmarks, but doesn't use them. | Henrietta is a 55 year old who isn't very good with computers, but is comfortable browsing the internet, using search engines, and typing in URLs.

She is not very curious about the browser and won't generally try something unless somebody or something tells her how to do it. She vaguely remembers he son Mike (the Mozilla developer above) tell her something about "History" and finding old sites. She doesn't know really what that is, but notices the menu with the same label. She might try one or two things that look promising, but will give up quickly if she doesn't understand what is going on or doesn't find what she's looking for. | |||
She | Task: Her goal is to revisit an interesting literature site she saw sometime last week to show a visiting friend. She was unable to find it with a quick Google search. She does not remember any part of the URL or the title, but would probably recognise the title if she saw it. | ||
Other goals: She wants to spend as little time learning to use the stupid computer as possible, and doesn't care about other things. | |||
