Re: Show HN: Article Bay, for collecting articles and sharing them with your team
#2Alex, I looked at articlebay.co.uk, read through it, and wondered why
would I want this browser plugin when I have email?
I'm sorry if that comes across too harsh, but it was actually what I was thinking, and when boiled down it simply means; I missed something.
Your marketing message missed the mark with me. It could be that I'm just not your target market, or I'm a little dense, or I'm a curmudgeon who likes email too much. I'm not sure what the answer is, but hopefully this admission of mine qualifies as "useful feedback" in some way.

Yep that's a fair comment, we built it because we were sharing so much stuff that it became difficult to remember who had sent which link, and what exactly was in the article. Plus we're super-lazy and saving that 5-10 seconds 20 times a week seemed worth it. Ultimately I see the value in this being the summarization of articles - there's too much stuff to read, so anything that helps in that area could be cool. But thanks for the feedback, we may need to improve that message :-)
