Here’s a bit from the 37signals website that really hits the mark on my new perspective on software design:
Our products do less than the competition — intentionally…. We believe software is too complex. Too many features, too many buttons, too much to learn. We build web-based products that do less, work smarter, feel better, and are easier to use. We pay enormous attention to the details and overall customer experience of our products.
