I don’t understand or adhere to the belief that anything to do with business needs to be drab and boring. If you are using a product it should be fun and easy." We, too just had a site upgrade (out since yesterday only) and we at our company - mor.ph thought it was a real improvement from the last iteration. We'll just have to wait for user reactions, though. 'Nuff said. Best. alain You nailed it for me, Natalie when you posted “…that business people are people too.
