Fair enough, but one of the biggest reasons I ignore these types of posts is because too often they lack these critical details, they come off as puff pieces to me. IMO these posts would hold value for a larger audience if that info was included in them.
- vacri 12y agoIt's a upcoming product announcement page from a vendor asking for preview registration, how can it be anything other than a puff piece?
- jsprogrammer 12y agoThe trick is, based on the title and other marketing tricks, one doesn't find out it's an actual puff piece until one has already spent time reading at least a portion of the puff. By then, you just feel used.
- antaviana 12y agoThere's a business side for it. Besides recruiting future customers via a preview, you also sublimilaly put off would-be customers decisions until your solution is ready to compete with existing solutions. Microsoft did it very successfully for years.
