I’ve always been the type of person who prefers a few things done well, than a lot of things done like hell. This is reflected a lot on my work, my designs and my current community Crysandrea. People will always continue to request, it’s natural they want more. But what many admins don’t realize is, that’s a one way road. Once you give users something, it’s a lot harder to take it away when you realize almost no one uses it. A great technology we know today as AJAX goes hand to hand with simple things. When you have time to focus, you start thinking differently. You have time to refine your code, speed up your current features, and improve them massively. That’s where you can hook onto for success, one or two features done very well, not 20 features that will get in the way a couple of months later.
So before you add that feature, think about the future. How long will your people really need that feature? Is it a luxury? Is it useful? Don’t mindlessly add features, mindlessly improve them.
