I posted a link to Candor[1] last week. Wharton's Adam Grant makes the compelling argument that "group ideation" tends to produce less innovative results. Creativity and shyness tend to be correlated after all. And consensus around a "winner" often forms prematurely due to "anchoring" and "clustering" biases.

By decoupling the two regimes, and perhaps even anonymizing the idea from its creator, you've got a winning chance of allowing team members to unleash their inner Jungian Shadow, and give reign to the daemons of inspiration ;)

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

It seems that since Firefox 2 they just kept making changes that didn't seem to really be focused on the user so much as giving the UI designers something to do.

Notable examples include:

* Making the buttons resemble a keyhole for no apparent reason.

* Hiding the forward button.

* Merging the forward and back button dropdown history list into one confusing ambiguous list.

* Adding an unholy orange button at the top.
