Love what you did there. Instead of bashing them to the ground you started off by rationally dissecting their process and pointing out how they should improve. Honestly, I think they should have paid you for this post! :)

Hi Creyels, thanks for your comment. Yep, it's absolutely this same switch you are describing her towards a "I want to craft this in a way, so I can love it." and making the bridge from usable to lovable is exactly my goal. Glad you liked i

What a post man, this is exactly what keeps you going in your startup. Loved the quote from Andrew Warner's interview. Balancing the two things out and differentiating between vision/ambition and day to day happiness is a powerful concept.

Isaac, good to see you here too. Thanks for the kind words, yep I really try my best to spread the word about Buffer. You are absolutely right I think, there is always a bad ring to it when you hear that. And I tried to state clearly that m

Hi Pstack, oh right, I totally understand your view and you are right it is sometimes quite hard to differentiate between Apps that make your life easier and those that turn you into mindless bots. We take every step possible not to cross t

Hmm, ok, I can totally understand where you are coming from with your comment and I do believe that these things happen in a negative form, which is what you are hinting at I think. I think this is also not a bad approach though. If you sig

Another great post Joel. Couldn't agree more with your first paragraph when speaking about the "scale anticipation fallacy". Not only do people think they have to get everything being able to scale to millions, they also think in terms of "

Awesome post Joel. Exactly my feeling about shipping and doing it early. One of the things I have also observed is that oftentimes you don't know how more "minimum" you can actually get something to work out still. This is my next step in l

Great post joel. I particularly agree with your "lizard brain" description. It is something I try to get rid of more and more. On the other hand it also acts as a sceptical element within my thinking, which I perceive to have some value too

Hi Iqbal, really like the app. I totally understand what I am supposed to do and see a clear purpos. I know this feedback might not be overly helpful to you, but I have nothing else on my fingertips right now. :)

Hi bpeters, I agree with you that as an established twitter user, you might as well have your own routine. This is also our thinking in the post. We simply tried to point out, what research suggests to bring the best results and we certain

Hi Jon, yeah, "every 30-60 minutes" is quite a lot, however the option for every 2-3 hours that Ben Hanna analysed is easier to keep up with maybe. Agreed, as for the business perspective a high number of tweets will definitely be handy for

Gojomo, really good stuff, many thanks. Well, we have pre-set the times at time slots which are best for most people. Anyone can easily change these times though. Nope, chrome is not a "have to" thing, you can if you wish. You can be sleepi

Thanks for your comment. Actually it's not specifically for marketing and agencies, although they will certainly find it useful. The main reason, why many people want to buffer their tweets atm, is because they are intersted in having a pla

Hi guys, it would be great to get some feedback on our latest video, explaining our product. We had some trouble to make people "get" it quickly what our product is all about. Have we improved?

hmm, is the app you are planning something that will solve some of your own problems? Or is it something that your boss's client would appreciate. I am guessing that it might be the latter in your case and that's why you have trouble motiv

Oo, I agree 100% with your view. The exact same thing happened to me when using posterous. It's really cool to start with, but I feel I am not really in control thereafter anymore. So I switched to WP, which I think is the best blogging pla

Hmm, this discussion has been going on for quite a while now and obviously will so in the future. I have to say that I feel the FB vs. Google discussion doesn't make much sense to me, and the only thing worth comparing is that they are both

great post. "Constraints make you focus." I couldn't agree more. Since I am going through a similar thing there was no time before when I thought my work was so efficient when working on this startup.

Really love that post, but "The real important change at Google is not the new CEO" would have been a catchier title ;). I truly believe you are right and it will stir things up again for the company that has really grown into a corporation
