The biggest challenge for Instapaper was the iOS5 "Read Later" feature. This version of the app shows to his customers that they didn't waste their money and ensures that their loyalty continues. It's a great response from a small software vendor, and I applaud him for releasing it at the perfect time right after the new iOS5 feature is out.
- dkasper 15y agoIf Mark Zuckerberg rubs you the wrong way does that make you less likely to recommend Facebook?
- ugh 15y agoNo. Why should it? I don’t understand, are you implying it should? I don’t think personality flaws of the creators that don’t impact the product are ever a good reason for not using a product. That line of thinking doesn’t even make sense to me. (Note that I’m not talking about products where the personality of the creators also impacts my experience of it. I’m perfectly willing to give up on a restaurant – even if I quite like the food – if the waiters are rude and annoying. Now, the food might be so great that I’m willing to overlook those flaws but at the very least the personality flaws figure into my decision. I can, however, happily use Facebook without ever being confronted with Zuckerberg’s personality flaws.)
