If you evaluate a piece of software by watching out for pompous marketing speech, you might miss the value (and price) of the software.

    When I saw this quote, I immediately though of Cluetrain Manifesto (http://www.cluetrain.com/) , point 15: In just a few more years, the current homogenized "voice" of business—the sound of mission statements and brochures—will seem as contrived and artificial as the language of the 18th century French court.

      Cluetrain Manifesto? 1999 wasn't it....I remember running around trying to get everybody to read this stuff

      Wish I could detect some small change in the marketing dross.

      Sometimes the worst culprit is me...

      We live in hope.
