“the problem of French people is that they tend to always wait to have something polished before releasing anything”
On Tuesday, I’ve been in a meeting with Scott Rafer (MyBlogLog) and Reshma Sohoni (SeedCamp).
If there is one thing very special to remember is when Scott told me that “my problem, as many French people, is that you wait way too much to make things looking great before releasing anything.
While American people would release crap, but release something and grab the market out there.”
We are not French people though! 
But we do speak French so somehow we have been influenced (I admit).
So let’s stop that influence and let’s start releasing more often less polished, but fully functional, plugins.
So, by the end of this weekend, we gonna release the first open alpha of CommenTag plugin for Wordpress.
Tell your friends, the nightmare of any of us who ever tried to catch up a conversation on a blog will soon be forgotten!*
PS: I will publish soon the minutes of this meeting, there is of course much more to say about it! Already many thanks to you guys for your great advises!
* Mmmm, at least on the blogs which will use our plugin

I always say : “good enough is good enough”. Even more, it’s better to sell a half good product than a product which took many years of development. The exit strategy emphasizes also my comment.
