Beta frustration
I found myself a bit frustrated today while doing some research on a couple of websites I was thinking of creating a screencast for. I understand that when something is labeled “beta” that it means there may be some bugs that need fixing or some features may not yet be available. That’s all fine and dandy folks but not putting a notice that these features are not yet available is a big fat waste of my time. Not only my time but the time of other people who may want to use your service for one particular feature that was advertised. If you have something listed as part of your service but it’s not yet live, please let the world know. Don’t make me email you wondering if something needs fixing when it’s not even ready yet. Put a big “coming soon” or “soon to be added” sign across whatever isn’t available. Otherwise some users, like me, most likely won’t keep checking back to see if everything is up and running.
