Our goal isn’t to make money. This may sound a little flippant, but it’s the truth. Our goal and what gets us excited is to try to make great products. We trust that if we are successful people will like them, and if we are operationally competent we will make revenue, but we are very clear about our goal.

When the point of contact between the product and the people becomes a point of friction, then the designer has failed.
