"NobodyWare"

Deep Thoughts in a shallow pond: Nobodyware - 99% of all software?

"Eric Sink on alternatives to shareware.

MeWare: The developer creates software. The developer uses it. Nobody else does.
ThemWare: The developer creates software. Other people use it. The developer does not.
UsWare: The developer creates software. Other people use it. The developer uses it too.
For completeness, I suppose I should probably mention the obvious fourth category:

NobodyWare: The developer creates software. Nobody uses it. "

Nice…

Could be easily extended to features too:

MeFeature: Developer adds feature. The Developer uses it. Nobody else does.
ThemFeature: Developer adds feature. Other people use it. Developer doesn’t.
UsFeature: Developer adds feature. Other people use it. Developer uses it.
NobodyFeature: Developer adds feature. Nobody uses it.

How many features have you added because “we have to have it” or “we’ll get so many more sales if we just had…”, etc, etc, that never get used?

Um... yeah…  :|
