Abstract

In this paper we look at how socialization in a community can be used to help computer illiterate users start using computers and internet in a few minutes. We describe a prototype system, Jadoo, which can be used by computer literates to create and distribute paper user interfaces. This paper interface can then be used by computer illiterates to access online information. We tested Jadoo with our target audience, people living in rural India, and iterated the design to fit their needs.
