“I apologize” is renting the problem. “I’m sorry” is owning it.

CampFire had a lot of glitches in December and 37signals did an epic job handling the problem from a customer relations standpoint. If you want to know why they handle problems the way they do — or better — if you are having to deal with customers this is a must read post.
