Earlier quoted context omitted.
Todo lists are a concept most people can already relate to, so there's no need to go to great lengths to explain why the product is useful. Instead they can get away with focusing on a whimsical use-case that's conducive to demos. So it's probably good that they picked a use case everyone can relate to, instead of focusing on a more realistic use case like tracking software bugs that only some people can relate to.
The use case may be relatable, but it's not a pain point use case, so why should I care? Has anyone really had trouble doing what they show in the video? Compare and contrast to 1000memories. In the same amount of time it shows 1000mem's advantages over existing solutions & presents a true value proposition to a usecase that is currently hard. Wufoo's recent video is another great example of getting this right.
Re: MetaLab launches "Flow" Asana competitor
#91I was trying to say that it's easy for people to imagine their own use cases for todo lists. Everyone already knows how to apply a todo list to their own life.
