A new year, a new set of coffees. Today’s coffee companion builds software products. We talked about:
- the wonderfully laid-back world of Ubud
- the amount of worshipping that goes on in general in Bali
- dodgy Uber drivers in Turkey
- my first year and a half at Equal Experts
- the current plans for Business Meerkat
- The Creativator
- how Deckible.com is developing
- the Drum Machine principle of generative AI
- getting feedback on products – and balancing getting stuff out there with early adopters being put off by an MVP
- how we learn some software and then tend towards using it in that way for evermore
- the user experience gap with rapid iterative releases (and “moving the aisles around in Waitrose” issues)
#100Coffees is an ongoing experiment in being intentionally unintentional. The Coffee part is a metaphor, as is the 100 bit. If you’d like to take part, sign up at https://calendly.com/matt-ballantine
