Sorry, folks: if Google remained a URL at Stanford for use by geeks only, I wouldn't consider it a success.

If Ubuntu never fixes goal #1, and particularly if it never fixed things stopping that goal, I wouldn't consider it a success.

TeX never achieved it's stated goal of allowing anyone to create typeset documents, and I don't consider it a success.

You may now return to digg and stop invading HN.

If you think caring about usability is a troll, I pity your users.
