This Might Be Good News

17 September 2002


I’m interested in feature – function – benefit. Some call this the, ”why do I care” statement. If all I get is news items in a web page with no technique other than cut-copy-paste to get the item wherever I want it, where’s the benefit? Why is this news aggregator superior to the others? Why, in particular, is it superior to the one bundled into and interfaced to Radio?
It may be that the answer to each of these questions is, ”the product isn’t aimed at you, idiot!” No, seriously. I may be stumbling around in places that nonprogrammers don’t belong. That’s fine. However, if it’s aimed at ”the masses,” the questions are relevant!
