Chris Messina wrote an article titled "Steve Jobs Hates the App Store", which has been making the rounds.  For context, it's worth linking to Chris's Wikipedia page. On to the article... Ok, Steve Jobs doesn’t hate the App Store. Translation: "Now that my sensationalist, link-baiting headline has gotten your attention..." It’s a friggin’ blockbuster ...

Chrome OS

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

Fake Steve on Chrome OS: Trying to make an OS out of Chrome is like saying you're going to turn a Pontiac Aztek into a stretch limousine. I suppose it could be done, but why? Apple isn't in the netbook market, so there's no reason to even consider Chrome OS a competitor. ...

Carrington Theme Spotted on The Colbert Report

Spoken like someone who has no idea what Twitter is or ...
