Nope. It's the era of success by marketing and luck, as it always has been and always will be.
Engineering is, as usual, pretty much irrelevant to success. That includes UX.
- Yhippa 15y agoThis makes me wonder if there are any major products out there that succeed despite terribad UX. In my mind I have a bunch of enterprise-y web apps but none really stand out.
- EvilTrout 15y agoI'd say Hacker News succeeds despite its UX. You can't collapse threads, many pages miss basic navigation elements, etc.
- ootachi 15y agoAmazon, eBay, Craigslist. Especially that last one.
- mforsberg 15y agoI agree they lack the edge in UX, on the other hand they got the other 2/3 of the puzzle that ender7 talks about in his first comment.
