The Curious Case of the Axed Comments

Because we strive to deliver the best time tracking application on the market, Tahometer is in a constant state of growth and evolution. Just as with nature, however, sometimes progress requires shedding old features that no longer serve a purpose. So now, 2 weeks after you have all been blessed with Tahometer 3.0, we thought it was a good time to explain why you can no longer leave comments via the desktop application.

Although this was a standard feature in our previous releases and surely would have been easy to implement, we regret to inform that axing the comment field was not a result of any of the morally acceptable options below:

Sleepless nights
Coffeeless days
Surprise bear attack in the office

Quite the opposite, in fact. After carefully considering your feedback, our very attentive and caffeinated staff concluded that established as it was, this was a feature that was barely used by our users, and thus simply had to go.

But what kind of relationship would this be if we just did away with pieces of functionality without first asking our users for permission? We would never! You can still send us your comments by entering them in your personal dashboard on the statistics page.

The change comes with a few great side effects too. As a result of this decision:

Tahometer is more lightweight
The agent has a more intuitive design

So let’s design Tahometer together. We appreciate every single customer and are always open for discussion. In fact, why not tell us right now in the comment section below what you think about this change? You have the power to influence the development process without writing a single line of code.

Get cracking, then.
