It looks great! Here are my comments.
- The following sentence needs to be rewritten. "Currently users count
with extensive documentation to set up Unified Push Console." My guess is
that the "with" should be "on".
- The last word needs an "s". "This might sound exaggerated adulation,
truth is I really do enjoy working with developer." Change "developer" to
"developers".
- Since you use "UPS" later on you need to add it the end of this
sentence. "I've been given the challenge to redesign Aerogear Unified Push
Console." Add on "(UPS)".
- Is this correct? "Install a client code" In English the use of "a"
indicates that it is a specific thing instead of programming code. It reads
like I need to enter "352245".
- Personally I feel that this sentence is demeaning to the user and the
innuendo on the end is inappropriate for
jboss.org "Yeah, we have high
expectations from our users. It isn't an easy job, and we need to hold
their hands and head them to a happy ending." But that just may be prudish
nature.
- Who do you intend to read this? If it is your intended user (of if you
think your intended user may ever read it) the overall tone is demeaning to
users. You are running the risk of pushing (no pun intended) users away.
You start out calling them children, then say they are too dumb to follow
your step to create it, then you say they do not enough attention and focus
to use the tool. It is one thing for you to think that way, it is another
to tell them to their face. To be clear, I am not on the Aerogear team. I'm
just providing the perspective of a potential user. I also believe that you
do not intend to offend, that is why I am offering this insight.
Not a native speaker (unlike Joshua), but I also had the same feelings when
reading the entry. It feels a little bit speaking from high up down to the
users.
Overall, I like having an entry about the work being done to redesign the
Push Console, and I like the blog post idea, but first reading, I found it
a bit harsh.

- Consider rewording "We only count with a fraction of a seconds
to make a
good first impression and just a couple of seconds to grab their
attention." to "We only have a fraction of a second to make a good first
impression and just a couple of seconds to grab their attention."
- Consider rewording "For UPS console" to "For the UPS console"
- Please change "an" to "and" in "complete the 5 steps to get
push
notifications up an running. "
- I am not sure but think you need a dash between "on bording" in "A
successful on boarding strategy is like".
- Consider rewording "As parents we need to encourage to teach themselves
and learn their own way." to include a "them" here "to encourage them
to
teach".
- Consider changing "Alan Coopers teach us that main goal of a UX design
is to never make the user feel stupid." to "Alan Cooper teaches us that the
main goal of a UX design is to never make the user feel stupid" (as a side
note, he makes my point for me :P )
I mean not offense by my edits or comments. I think it great that you
wrote this up. Keep writing (and coding/designing).
