Product Issues

 
 

Although this report displays the many pros and cons of MIT public bulletin boards, two main critical product issues have been identified:
 

  1. The bulletin boards are unorganized and cluttered, especially with non-MIT related advertisements.

    2.  
  2. The bulletin boards rely on the memory of exact details (dates, times, etc.).

By improving solely upon these two characteristics, it is believed that a significant improvement in the user experience will be achieved.
