“For a system to be successful, the users of the system have to perceive that it’s directly valuable to them,” Schachter says. “If you need scale in order to create value, it’s hard to get scale, because there’s little incentive for the first people to use the product. Ideally, the system should be useful for user number one.”

I was reminded of this when watching Sari’s 2h presentation. It seems, with Sublime, that we’ve come full circle, back to where we were in 2002 when I first adopted del.icio.us
Loving how simple this image is from @sari’s presentation on Sublime. Contrasting it with my equivalent personal content strategy pipeline, I’m forcibly reminded of that YouTube parody “If Microsoft designed the iPod packaging”

We learned the hard way that new products are hard enough to figure out, and we should make as many things as familiar as possible. Again, life and new products are hard enough. When you can use a familiar term instead of being original, do so. Never opt for a solution that is more creative but less effective.
