are we hoping to ship a first-run speed dial that gets users where they want to go with one click, a curated directory of wonderful things, or a bit of both?
If you turn it into "where we think the user *should* be going to", we have the 2 continents aligned.
The current top sites didn't get there by free user choice either, but often marketing. Facebook isn't so extremely popular because they're the best site ever made, but because they have a clear strategy that makes people *force* their friends into Facebook. I am constantly pressured by others to install Skype, and I hate that. It's not by free choice that people use Facebook.
If we make suggestions of useful sites, we act in the best interest of the end user, helping him discover great stuff. And I think they will appreciate it - *if and only if* the selections are in the user's interest, not ours and not the industry.
(And if they really want to go to Facebook, we're not stopping them.) Ben _______________________________________________ mobile-firefox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mobile-firefox-dev
