We’ve been writing this blog since the project started. For the first few weeks we wrote about the theory of the project, since that was what we were struggling with - the major decisions of which task to tackle, which features to include, and which to cut.
Those were the heady days of philosophical discussions about Journalism and Conversations and Democracy and there was much to blog.
Then came the era of the research, wherein the consumer insights team wrote about their findings, and the industry researchers dug through the host of products already in existence, and the team gleaned many new answers that provided course corrections for the project. Since then we’ve blogged about some of our industry research discoveries.
The act of blogging served as a catharsis. It was the cleansing act of articulating the problems we were combating. It helped us organize, provided objectivity and some of the input we’ve received from comments has been invaluable.

But after much hand-wringing and painful decisions suddenly, overnight we were in full-on development mode. Since now our day-to-day grind consists of tackling innumerable design and development obstacles, with some research and now final report and presentation preparation thrown in, such pursuits do not always make for interesting blog posts.
And so, I ask you, our loyal reader(s), what is it that you would like to know about the riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma that we call the Crunchberry project?
