Oh my gawd, I love Seth.

If you think the fallout in the newspaper business was dramatic, wait until you see what happens to education.

Thrilling times await, as more and more people start realizing this.

This dialog sucks. I know the question has already been raised! I’m simply teh UX guy who doesn’t like it.

Here are some ideas: since the shell is heavily integrated with the product, you can:

  • schedule the update to be performed before the shell is started, on log-on
  • detach the shell extension from the core functionality
  • AT LEAST change the url to be the proper one so that we immediately get the new version instead of going through 3 pages on the site

Yeah, not trivial, but will make us love you, tortoise guys.
