なぜふぁぼったーは英語圏で負けたのか(インタビュー原文) - Togetter
Twitterのつぶやきマッシュアップメディア!なぜふぁぼったーは英語圏で負けたのか(インタビュー原文)
今年の7月にリリースされてから、早々に公式サイドバー入りするなど英語圏で圧倒的な人気を集めるfavstar.fm。ふぁぼったーは2008年の1月から英語版サービスを展開していたにもかかわらず、なぜ英語圏の制空権を得られなかったのか。たまたま見つけた海外のふぁぼったーユーザーにTwitterで直接インタビューしてみた。

@timhaines hey, can you stick a total number of faved tweets per user in favstar? That's main reason I check favotter, cos I'm vain. -
@joshsharp Hi, I'm developer of Favotter. Can I ask a question about favotter and favstar? I wanna know some ideas from non-Japanese. -
@ono_matope sure, happy to help out :)
-
@joshsharp Thx very much! so what do you think is the missing in favotter as a web service for English users? (as compared with favstar)
-
英語圏の人にひどく直接的にふぁぼったーの感想を聞いている。
-
@ono_matope oh I love favotter, favstar looks a bit prettier, sometimes picks up favourites quicker. That's all really! I prefer favotter.
-
@joshsharp Thanks: ) Aha, cool desing and quick pikking are important.(cont.)
-
@joshsharp As a Japanese, I feel favotter's font expression as pop. How do you feel them? I consider font-colors should be change to mono?
-
(140 chars is too short for Englishi beginners like me)
-
英会話こわい。
-
@ono_matope no, I think fonts and colours are good already..
-
外人的にもフォントいじりはオッケーらしい。貴重なご意見 RT @joshsharp: @ono_matope no, I think fonts and colours are good already..
-
@joshsharp Hmm. That's a relief : ) To be frank, so what do you think make favstar popular among English users unlike favotter?
-
@ono_matope to be honest, I think the default japanese text scares people away a little bit. Also it should have it's own domain name,
-
@ono_matope rather than subdomain. Also it's hard to get popular within the big 'western' sites unless you're English-speaking and a part of
-
@ono_matope it already. If that makes sense. It's very self-focused.
-
@joshsharp O.K. I understand. What favotter lacks most are 1: native and natural English support and 2: domain, aren't they?
-
@ono_matope exactly. And perhaps someone english-speaking to promote it.
-
@joshsharp Oh, yeah. promotion is important. I wanna send out news release to English media like techcrunch when I release next version.
-
@joshsharp OK, thank you for the answering difficult questions on such short notice. Your feedbacks are highly suggestive! I'll do my best.
-
@ono_matope yeah techcrunch etc is a good idea :) no problems, glad I could help!
