Show AND Tell!

For those of you who get caught telling everyone how great your product is, David Hornik's post on VentureBlog today is worth a read. It's the classic problem -- we love to talk up the features vs. showing them -- remember back to your elementary school days folks -- show and tell was BORRRING without the SHOW. So we need to stop spewing all this talk about great features and start proving it with the SHOW.

No arguing with Hornik's point about Steve Jobs being the master demo guy for SHOWing products - there's a link here to Steve Job's webcast demo - have a look -- there's some great tips you can pick up quickly.
