I adopted a pitbull whose shelter name was "Beans". Immediately upon adopting, I dropped the name "Beans" and gave him the moniker Tatanka. My wife occasionally calls him Tonka Beans for short...
looks fantastic no doubt. i am hesitant to click the twitter auth button, however. maybe some sort of app preview would cure my (and possible some others') paranoia?
@alex_g, thanks for taking the time to provide a very useful critique of the site. i appreciate you signing up and playing around with it a bit. i wanted to put it out early (flaws and all) to get just this type of feedback. so thank you. would love to hear some more thoughts. i'll follow up with an email if that's ok with you!
@tzaman: you don't like super vague homepages? haha, no, you are completely right, thanks for checking it out...copy is something i neglected from the get-go
right...mark did not touch on the topic of toxic workplaces. he focused solely (i guess) on these "good" or "utopian" work situations. that was another catalyst for the post.
however, in his latest blog post, mark addresses these issues. so i definitely credit him there.
compelling may have been a poor choice of words on my part. clearly, i felt strongly against his position to write about it. the filtering technique was what jumped out at me as plain wrong. not to mention the fact that it was coming from a completely polarized perspective. with all that said, i think i can see where he was going with his post. he's gotten a ton of shit from the community for it, which might have forced him to write his latest piece. have you seen this? : http://www.bothsidesofthetable.com/2010/04/25/job-hoppers-re...
right...that's a valid concern. i think however, when weighing the options between releasing something that's fully robust and polished (say 12 months time) versus a minimum viable product (say 3 months time) most would lean towards the latter.
there is just too much rapid iteration that can (and probably) will occur after releasing the minimum viable product. if you wait too long, you'll be behind in the race.
