Thank you all for responding. I am trying yet again to post a reply. I am not sure whether this will reach you guys, or be "gone" forever somewhere "out there". I personally believe that is you create a service or a product, UCD is the best development process. The manager I quoted was happy about creating tons of patents eventhough NO one used them. He said it himself. "We create tons of features that no other company can duplicate. We get patents too. Our customers ask for specific features and when we create them, they don't use them at all. our focus is on features." Then he showed a picture where only 2 features were used out of 30 features.
How about focusing on the features that are used by the user and improve them?? Why have 50 engineers work on features, features...features that aren't used anyway? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
