    RT @steoreilly: Flopbox RT @adrianweckler: Dropbox in danger of losing out, with its measly 2GB… Yeah, ’cos it’s all about numbers. #ux

        @aral @steoreilly @adrianweckler it's like with Samsung and their 40" smartphones that nobody will ever use.

        @dotmariusz @steoreilly @adrianweckler 40" is so last year, I hear Samsung’s 2013 phones are at least 56" and come with wall mounts.

        @aral @steoreilly @adrianweckler this "mine is bigger than yours" syndrome totally makes me sad. Inferiority complex much?

        @aral @steoreilly @adrianweckler I'd rather have a nice experience with 2GB, over a crap experience with endless GBs.

        @aral @steoreilly @adrianweckler People can relate to numbers but UX is a very important factor when choosing a service such as Dropbox.

        @aral @steoreilly @adrianweckler I prefer Google Drive to dropbox but it isn't about numbers at all (but I do get 80gb for $20 a year).
