Cute usability feature in DevonThink Pro

June 28th, 2008

I’m looking at DevonThink Pro since every time you look for notekeeping software this one comes up. I’ve only just installed it but already it’s being quite cute.
When you start it up, it opens a web page to welcome you. You get to enter your email address and they’ll send you some tips on how to use the software for 3 weeks. After that, they delete your email address!
Obviously I’ve yet to see if they actually do delete it but assuming they do, the approach is really quite refreshing. They’re trying to help you do something, not sell you something (though they’re obviously going to try and do that at some point). Nice way to start your relationship witha new software vendor.
