I’m talking about you Ovi, Nokia’s new app Store.
Early criticisms point out the store’s paltry selection, slow performance and sign-in errors, disappearing apps and a less-than-intuitive UI. Nokia blamed the store’s unresponsiveness on unusually high traffic and did its best to address the problem, but even those efforts by its own admission resulted in only “intermittent performance improvements.”

So Eric and I are considering the start of Duo LLC, our way of making some extra cash and eventually freeing ourselves from the companies we work at. I really want to model our company like 37signals. More importantly, I read their manifesto and now want to create one for Duo as a list of guidelines to keep our business a happy place. I can safely say that I’m becoming obsessed with simplicity and design. Like 37signals, I want to provide a service to people that they really need, in the simplest and most cost-efficient way. I enjoy making people happy, and I think our company will be able to do that cheaper than the competition. As Duo, we simply want to help people for a simple price, and however far this goes, I want to keep it that way.
