Customer service is something we always expect to be good. Regardless of the product or company, if you search the Internet you can probably find several horror stories as well as several glowing reviews. On this note, I came across a good post titled “Thoughts on Finding Good Customer Service” which has a very good [...]
For those that remember internet in the late 1990s, you remember your dialup being slow, there was no such thing as tabbed browsing, web sites were clunky/cumbersome and difficult to navigate, low screen resolutions of the time meant lots and lots of scrolling, and well, you get the idea.
