On Numbers (Not Really)

Thursday, August 16, 2007

David Weiss shares his thoughts on a recently released Apple product, Numbers. I want to share my thoughts on his thoughts.

One of the great benefits of working at Microsoft is that when you add a new little one to your family, you get 1 month of paid paternity leave.

With such socialist policies it’s no wonder Microsoft releases products that are as attractive and usable as anything made in the Soviet Union.

The bigger questions in my mind are really these: "Will Apple's software foundation allow them to add to and improve their software for the next 20 years? What will be the rate of their improvement?"

I think the great thing about Apple, they don’t ask themselves: “How do we build an indefinitely sustainable monopoly?” Instead, they are building things that actual people love to use.

But this is really brilliant:

Mac users are the kind of people that want things to "just work".

Exactly, and Windows users are such kind of people that nobody cares what they want. Least of all, Microsoft.

Famous People about Web 2.0

You cannot make a man by standing a sheep on its hind-legs. But by standing a whole flock of sheep in that position you can make a crowd of men. If man were not a gregarious animal, the world might have achieved, by this time, some real progress towards civilization. Segregate him, and he is no fool. But let him loose among his fellows, and he is lost — he becomes a unit in unreason.

— Max Beerbohm

The secret of being a bore is to tell everything.

— Voltaire

I assure you, I’m not high.
