Why my f***ing awesome web app doesn’ t move forward ?
What prevents an application, like Twitter, of acquiring more and more users besides the geek users? Even within my circle of friends and acquaintances that work/study with IT, when I talk about I’ m a Twitter user, I need to repeat uncountable times what Twitter is about and I usually explain to them according to what twitter advertise as their goal (Not a micro blogging tool, What are you doing?). In 90% of the cases, they say they heard about it but don’t know what´s its purpose, in other words, they don´t know how they could use twitter for their benefit. ”Why would I tell ´followers´ what I am doing ?¨ is the most asked question after my explanation. It means Twitter´s initial goal failed to instigate the user to create a new need, but why ?
David Pache
I’m starting a new section in my blog where I’m going to present and recommend talent of many areas, but all related to web development. I believe it is very important this connection with what is being created around the web and us (developers), because besides being good to inspire ourselves, it help us to became more competitive and to ensure we are in a continuous learning, always focusing in our self improvement.
I’m going to present a designer, called David Pache, who brings a minimalist style that in my point of view is something the so called web 2.0 is all about: simplicity. The designer bests creations are his logos. You can see all the process of creating a logo, as well color studies in his “dacheboard” which is kind like a blog, where he wrotes about he develop his works.
Make sure to visit his portfolio. Bellow is just a sample of David’s work.
