Hi Mimi,

I'm liking the latest landing page -- not to say that we might not need 
further tweaking, but I think it is an improvement over the current one 
and perhaps a good idea to put it up and see how that goes.

FWIW, I'm not 100% bought into referring to Chandler as a "Notebook", 
though the way it fits with the current landing page looks reasonable, 
so worth trying out. As I mentioned to you in person, "Notebook" 
conjures up spiral bound lined paper and free-form doodles for me -- not 
triage and tasks on-a-calendar and general Chandler-ness. That said, 
"Notebook" as a term to replace collection I think is kind of 
interesting. Also, I see your point about generally positioning Chandler 
as a "place to track ideas" vs as a task manager.

In terms of going ahead with putting it up, I'm assuming that we're 
going to implement the 'detect-the-download-platform' feature.

Is the plan to implement the 'product tour' at the same time, or to do 
it in phases?

Cheers,
Katie
