Delays and technical problems continued to
plague enrollment efforts on the online
insurance marketplaces created under
President Barack Obama’s health care law on
Wednesday.
Consumers trying to view and compare new
insurance plans on healthcare.gov, the federal
website running the Illinois insurance
exchange, were met with error messages or
delays a day after the system launched.

If we connect and extend
our pre-launch customer-
insight thinking to post-
launch management, then
we can significantly
improve the performance of
our digital programs and
value to our users.

“Yes, delight. A squishy, subjective, hard-to-pin-down term. So
daringly unquantifiable, so proudly immeasurable. And now,
suddenly, all the rage in data-driven Silicon Valley.”
“In the surest sign that delight may be on the cusp of morphing from
insurgent idea to overused buzzword, Microsoft and Dell have
embraced it. It's the corporate equivalent of parents joining Facebook,
making it instantly uncool.”
“Hold the eye rolls, however, because underneath its trendiness and the
suspicion that it's just some new marketing babble, the talk of delight
signals a radical shift in the way Silicon Valley creates products.”

“Amazon is so confident of its
ability to personalize the site for
each user that the company
hardly ever creates classic
customer-segment personas,
such as ‘soccer moms’ or
‘gearheads.’ Such marketing
standbys are too imprecise for
Team Bezos.”
- Forbes, April 2012

at this [touchpoint], then we
can improve the experience
by measuring this [metric].
