Motorola: A Lesson on How Not to Launch a Product
Motorola, a Chicago hometown favorite, really needs to hit one out of the park. They’ve been sinking since the Razr fell out of favor, but they really screwed up their latest product launch, the CLIQ and its new operating system called MotoBlur, a version of Google’s Android. It’s very disappointing and is a bad sign for its future. My pet peeve: Don’t ever call a product a ‘solution.’ It’s jargon and completely non-descriptive. It makes you sound like you want to sound sophisticated. (PC Magazine via Daring Fireball)
