Indeed, it matters to make the client happy. However, there is a different
in making a dumb client happy and a wise client happy. If I were your
client and you showed me any of those WebCup sites as a 96 hours prototype.
I would doubt your skills.
I could be your client but I have my standards vis-à-vis my own customers.
Your comment sounds more like producing something for end-users with no
technical background. However, when you produce something
business-to-business, the "keep customer happy" is set to a higher bar.
