What's the difference between "adding a feature" and "improving the site"?

I always took them to be the same thing. In that sense, you're either adding a feature or you're stagnating. (Or, I suppose, going backwards.)

"Getting Real" has the answer to that: https://gettingreal.37signals.com/

In short, having fewer features is often the best feature.
