Re: Free Software is the Future

Hey Philip

I never said I was an open source expert, what I'm saying is that I believe the future of (consumer software, mainly), is free and I'm also saying that the perception is that free software IS ALWAYS open source, and therefore unusable.

SynthaSite is built using open source technologies and is made freely available, but we have a heavy focus on usability, much more than other free products out there. Also, I read your blog post at (http://www.turbocash.net/index.php?option=com_c...) and you incorrectly assume that we have to market to our users to make money. That is not our business model, which is to assist our users in becoming active online and consuming 3rd party online services.

Knowing the infrastructure that we're putting in place to conduct user testing, support & design in a data driven organization, I find it very hard, if not near impossible to believe that open source, non-commercial mass consumer applications are getting as much attention in the usability field as we are giving it in the free, commercial field.

Rebecca & Martin - thanks for both your insightful comments. This is definitely an interesting thread, as software development changes, so do the economics of Software as a Service. I'm very interested to see how lean and nimble some companies become, whilst servicing millions of customers - very different to the pre-2000 paradigm

Hi Anthony

Thanks for the write up!

We did have some problems with performance last week - just after the release. The problem was fixed and performance/speed is up to expectation now. People based in South Africa, such as Shawn69, may experience speed problems due to bandwidth constraints in South Africa in general - as our servers are hosted in the USA.

We do believe that SynthaSite's performance is up to expectations - please let me know if you experience otherwise!

Thanks
Vinny Lingham
CEO, SynthaSite

I think that the new iPhone 3G will be a game changer. Everything we have thought about before then will have to be rethought...

Hey Daniel... any closer to the ETA yet? :-) I really think this is the breakout feature for Disqus - I would easily move everything across...
