    Hey everyone. I promised you a few articles, so here's the second.

    This one's a bit more serious, and puts into words something I've been feeling for a while now about our place in the industry and what we've become.

    I'd love to hear what you think!

    P.S. the article was getting really long so I had to cut a lot out, but I'll be sending it out this weekend to my newsletter, if you're interested.

      This is something I've been conflicted about recently with some projects, specifically related to quality vs. impact. Thanks for the article Joel! I needed that today.

      I work in a media company with 3 key "users," Stakeholders, partners and users. Stakeholders are our content-creators and editors, partners are our advertising clients and users are our actual end-users. Our entire product team is fighting the same things described in your piece daily. Appreciate your broaching this subject. Keeps me beating my dead horse.

      PS I like your dating advice article. US date does make sense, its just annoying when you're not sure which date system in being used.
