Nonsense. The only companies that have become huge because of their websites are those for whom the website *IS* the product. Bad websites are annoying, but they're not what makes a company fail to grow. In fact, wasting resources to make a killer website instead of a killer product is a sure way to wind up with your only legacy being a lot of nice entries on archive.org.
Question: is easyJet's product a website, or low-cost flights? If it's the former, then I agree with you, if it's the latter, then, keeping in mind their website is their largest sales vector, I'd disagree with you. There are a certain set of industries where the website is their main sales outlet, yet not their main product. For these companies, a good, and extremely usable, website is key. Moof - works in a website-heavy industry where the product is not the web. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
