Kampyle Closes the Feedback Loop, I can’t wait to try it out. Iterate often and quickly, that’s the name of the game. This service lets developers put a customized feedback form on their site, complete with a pretty robust set of management tools. You can even personally email the end-user back.

“Thanks, I didn’t notice that. I’ll fix it tonight”.  Will definitely help foster a better user community.

There were a total of 129,653 garage sales posted to Craigslist nationwide in May of 2007. In May 2008 there were 252,561

Bad news for the Fed, good news for StudyBob. I’d imagine a lot of those people having garage sales just might be interested in making some more money on the side…

#5: Be User-Centric
#6: Be Self-Centered
