[EHPweb] 5000 more Facebook Likes for new EQ interface overnight!

[Lisa A Wald]

FYI-

After the M8.2 last night, I got 10 emails complaining about the new earthquake map/list interface, but the page got 5000 more Likes on Facebook!  I think that not only unquestionably demonstrates the overall positive reception of the new interface, but also proves what I've suspected all along - the small percentage of users with negative reactions tend to be the ones that are most verbal.

This typical human behavior misrepresents the perceived feedback and leads us to believe that this and other new web products are sometimes negatively received, when in fact, the reception is overwhelmingly positive.
