Only downside is that there are LOTS of pieces to have to "work" back together when it's disassembled, and the material "dents" rather that exhibiting a more "rubber-like" behavior. All-in-all, good value for the money and a fun and educational product for tykes 'n' toddlers. %The Siteless Site « Uno de Waal Blog% A nice product that keeps little ones from bonking on hard floors %Saturday%.

I agree that it's the functionality that is core at the end of the day, but it's the same argument with any site really. Let's just hope not toooo many people want to build something :) We want to hook up a little widget thingamabob for 10and5. Yo Matt thanks man.

I think jetpack is great, it's another step forward on the online frontier and as a result is good for all of us. Having said that... No matter how easy it is to build or develop any online application (or extension to Firefox), if the functionality being offered isn’t relevant to both the brand and the user, it is destined to fail. Searching for relevance should always be our first priority and sadly I think that this development, although good for the advancement of our industry in general, is going to lead to the propagation of quite a bit more noise. We'll have to wait & see. Great post Uno!

It adds more credibility when the data it pulls are from normal users. If I see a product I'd want to buy in its natural "habitat", as is the case with Jeep, I'll be able to make a better choice... It's actually a 2-edged sword. It adds credibility, but on the other side, it might deflate one's idea about a product. I guess it depends on the product too... Meh... I'm rambling + I'm studying for my marketing exam in a week's time. This is what's on my mind. :P I like this concept, especially when its used as advertising/marketing for companies.
