User Feedback For Web Applications
Everyone always agrees that user feedback is a good thing, but in a “Ship the product!” kind of world, it’s often left by the way side. Not so for the Robot Co-op. 43 Things, as well as 43 places have user feedback features built right into the application in an intuitive and attractive way.
It seems to work too! On his blog, Josh points to user suggestions and ideas that have already been implemented.
The effects of this are quite neat. I feel a “collective ownership” over the application that I otherwise would not have. It makes it seem as though the Robot Co-op are simply custodians of the interesting world they have created, and the community has the power to make decisions and shape the application.
Who thought user feedback could be so fun? Groundbreaking stuff…
