Of course, I meant "way cool." That's what I get for not acting my age!
Don't be so sure. There's nothing wrong with the phrase "way good". "Good" and "cool" are not strictly synonymous. For example, if you were to finish a particularly tasty plate of nachos, you might say, "Dude, those nachos were way good!" You would not, however, say they were "way cool".
When describing a software feature, "way cool" suggests that it is slick-looking and does something novel but not necessarily useful. "Way good", on the other hand, suggests a useful feature that does its job well.
I think you were right the first time.
