What is it with the link spam accusations every time somebody shares an opinion?

Isn't "link spam" what the blogosphere is all about? The guy's sharing an opinion, and being familiar with this blog, and educated one at that.

Enough with this ridiculous accusation already.



Fair enough. Perhaps my first sentence would have been better on its own.

I don't think it is unreasonable to note a disconnect between the article's title and the content. I guess I was hoping for something more substantial. Maybe, an educated opinion on highrise vs. earlier products.

Saying something is getting less buzz/blog-hype over time could be said about almost anything.


Good point, but it's still an interesting observation. 37signals was everywhere in 2006, and now, not so much.

I'm not sure how that translates to anything meaningful, or whether it's just that their message has been received by the audience already.

Personally, I think they have reached a work threshold for their team. They haven't expanded all that much from the original core group, (not that they want to) but they've increased the products they service. There are only so many hours in a day.

I'm actually interested in seeing what happens to them in terms of their "keep it small" mantra and the obvious desire - and need, considering their marketing prowess - to introduce new products.


Now that has the making of an interesting blog post!

Seriously though, you are touching some key points here.
