I wish I had read this post by Kevin Merritt before I gave my talk last night at STS. This is good stuff, and the general concepts Kevin writes about – competing priorities, quick iteration, measurement, feedback — all mesh well with my nuts-and-bolts discussion.

The more I read about blist the more impressed I am. There’s an intuitive appeal to how they think about what they’re doing. And Kevin’s next most recent post reminded me not a little of Hillel’s talk last night — (paraphrasing)

We’re here to listen to you, the customer, but ultimately we are going to remain true to our vision of our company, and not sell out our vision.

Good stuff.
