Re: Yahoo Axis
#22Is there any other products currently that can sync your desktop to your mobile device? I haven't been too successful finding anything.
I found this to be adequate for my needs for now: tabhq.com. It basically syncs your chrome tabs with the web, and access the tabs anywhere by going on the site.

#23In the demo video, they show someone doing copy/paste in the browser window to enter information into the axis search bar. Why not add a contextual menu choice?
It is the small UX things like this that would really make me want to try it over just opening a new tab in chrome, typing something in and getting the results.

#24The guy in the desktop video would be more convincing if only he would stop shaking his head "no".
Had to re-watch to see it, but you're right he is shaking his head, a classic unconscious behavior meaning he probably doesn't believe in it.

#25"Watch the Ad!"
Is there anything that shows how out-of-touch Yahoo better than the idea of wasting 1/3 of the above-the-fold space with something that warns people in advance it is nothing more than an ad?
Call it "Learn More" or something - anything but this. Didn't they A/B test it?
(Or maybe I'm part of the unsuccessful half of an A/B test. Hmm..)

#26The salesperson's habit of shaking his head 'no' while talking makes me not believe his statements. That, and the fact that he works for Yahoo . . .

I thought the same thing, it was seriously distracting for me. Its kind of amazing that they gave him such little direction about his body language.

Re: Yahoo Axis
#29So it's a new toolbar? Just what decade is Yahoo! living in? Edit: What strikes me is how this is being billed: "A Chrome killer" and even the demo and ad spot use the phrasing "new browser": however this is not a browser. It may be a /browsing experience/ perhaps but it certainly doesn't stand to compete with Chrome mano-a-mano. Clearly the true target is search. But even then: has the world been waiting breathlessl…
On iOS it is actually a browser. You are being dismissive without even knowing the facts.
Additionally, Yahoo! has never called it Chrome killer.

Yes, seriously it wouldn't hurt the guy to smile to actually make me even want to believe him.
