Hello Joe. At 3:55 PM on Saturday, January 05, 2002 you wrote the following in regards to my comments to Syv on the posted subject 'Keyboard navigation':
syv>>> These are the kind of things that make sure that syv>>> TB is not commercial success! Jan>> Just curious: how do you conclude this is a fact? Joe> I think this falls into the realm of common sense, Joe> Jan. I've been following the philosophical discussion on common sense that you've been having with Thomas which emanated from my question -- very interesting. This whole branch probably belongs on TBOT, but anyway, I just wanted to jump back in here for a moment to say that the real question I was asking was how Syv had determined for an absolute *fact* that TB! was not a Cx success. After all, what Microsoft or Syv (or anyone -- I'm not picking on you, Syv) considers a Cx success is not necessary the benchmark. Personally I think TB! is already a success because its here, it works better than all/most email clients currently on the market & has so many devoted users even tho it has limited resources for advertising & marketing. Can it use more users? Sure. Will it get them? Probably... as we all proselytize the world to The Bat. In addition, I would imagine you'd agree that success can change with age. What one considers a success @ 20 yrs of age can be very different from what one considers a success @ 60 yrs of age. That's called perspective. However, I hope for the sake of RitLabs that TB! is at least successful enough presently to keep the RITLab families in food, clothing & under a heated roof besides providing the fellows the freedom to continue TB's march towards the ultimate success that Svy & others think it can achieve. Oh, & BTW, I certainly agree that easier makes for more popular. OE fits that description, doesn't it? :-) -- Jan Rifkinson Ridgefield, CT USA TB!
