I assume that the agglomerated views are the images to the right of  
the screen shots. If so, yes, they are a bit overwhelming.

There are too many points illustrated, each without enough  
explanation and too much Chandler-specific jargon, e.g. Triage, Mark- 
up bar, that beginners won't understand.

I suspect breaking it into more topics/screen shots, each with more  
information in callouts would help.

Also, it would be nice if the average advanced computer user could go  
to the page, noodle around for 3 minutes and come away with a better  
high-level understanding of what Chandler does. Right now, the whole  
page is a little dense, without enough context, and with a little too  
much information that people will have a hard time figuring out, --  
e.g. "Navigate the calendar with the Mini-Calendar", "Collaborate  
with Chandler Hub", and "Simplified Triage Table", won't mean much to  
most people.
