53 sats \ 2 replies \ @k00b 28 Jan \ on: The excellent Pebble e-paper smartwatch is making a comeback tech
Awesome blog on why pebble failed the first time:
The underlying problem was that we shifted from making something we knew people wanted, to making an ill-defined product that we hoped people wanted.
The lesson I took from it is that trying to reach a wider audience by changing your product often means diluting your value.
I tweeted at the time that there’s still a market for the original pebble. I’m glad Migicovsky is the one making it.

Great piece, and sadly a too-common story of tech failures. "Growth" is as much a threat as anything to niche tech companies.
