    "The title on this article is why it sucks, and what it discusses is a masterpiece" Haha :D

    I shared this mostly because of the content. It is harsh in places, but if you look at some of the details it represents a very important and somewhat harsh reality for anyone that does design.

    Your comment is the exact reason I shared this article. It is easy to fall into the trap of "I built a great product with awesome design and great usability, so I should have won the market." Unfortunately this is frequentlynot the case.

    I don't agree with the tone or the nature of the article fully, but I do think the overall lesson is a very good one.
