I'm not a fan of those wheels, but otherwise, I'm in love....

The reported change to Flash Player's fate is with the mobile version Flash Player, but it raises doubts about the personal-computer version, too.

This makes me smile. The web is going to suck less and we can move forward.

Steve Jobs was right about the floppy, serial, and parallel ports. He was right about Flash.

The masses in IT, so focused on preserving the status quo and unable to see the big picture are the ones that come out looking like total horses' asses today. That's because, well, they are. IT is overrun by them and in the enterprise, well, the horses's asses infest all ranks and far more often than not, call the shots. That's why consumer IT is driving today's innovation and why, thankfully, geeks are no-longer the tech taste-makers.

That’s lovely, but there’s really only one faith which free societies are expected to treat with scrupulous intelligence, calculation, civility, and decency, and that expectation exists precisely because they might end up being firebombed if they don’t. Goofing on the others may get you some disapproving clucks and a lecture from Bill Donohue on Fox News, but you’ll walk away intact.

When you release sub-par products, you look sub-par yourself. Customers don’t care what platform it’s on, and don’t care what politics are going on behind the scenes at the company. If you release shit, you look like shit. It’s much better to release nothing at all.

THIS, right there, is wisdom anyone creating any product, software, hardware, widgets, cookies, cars, or anything else for that matter, should heed.

Google doesn't get this. That's why, to me, Google's just a steaming pile of elephant shit. They have no style. They have no taste. They have no concept of user experience. And they have no quality assurance program.
