Breaking: The Sky Is Falling. Will Publishing Innovate or Deteriorate?

http://dearauthor.com

more animals I’m worried, readers. I am worried about publishing as a business. My worries do not stem from used sales. My worries do not stem from piracy of digital books. My worry is that publishing will not take this opportunity to innovate. Anita Elberse’s article in the Wall Street Journal only increases my concerns. Elberse’s argument is essentially that the current publishing business model worked before and so publishers need to keep at it. I found her to be arguing that the existing

The Downside to iPhone Success

http://seekingalpha.com

Smartphone applications are one of the biggest trends going, one that will only get bigger in 2009. Not exactly unexpected, especially for anyone who’s followed Salesforce.com’s (NYSE: CRM) AppExchange model. But despite how Google’s Android (NASDAQ: GOOG) foreshadowed the market, it’s taken the brilliance of Steve Jobs to get the ball rolling. On the one hand, the dynamics are similar to ring tones

The peer production of the iPhone

http://blog.p2pfoundation.net

We continue our presentation of Kevin Carson’s important essay on decentralized production. In our previous summary, Kevin argued that we are ready for a ‘distributed’ neotechnic era of organization of production, that this format has been derailed, but is about to become dominant. The first sign of this, he argues, is what we see happening in the culture industries. I present the general argument, then a example that Kevin has chosen to illustrate the crisis, and that concerns the iPhone. 1

Onion News Network - Apple MacBook “Wheel”

http://www.freshnessmag.com

In the world of fake news and factitious product launch, no one has done it better than Onion News Network, the video news site launched by the humorists at the ONION paper.  So ahead of today’s highly anticipated MacWorld conference in San Francisco, ONN created a hilarious (and well made mock ups) of “Apple MacBook Wheel”, a laptop without keyboard.  Instead, in its place is a giant click-wheel, that in their own words, will “re-invent the wheel”.  All in the name of a good laugh.

Switcher's Lament: CNET Editor's Case Against The Mac

It's been a fun year watching those cute Apple commercials urging you to switch to a Mac. Yes, many of us love Apple's beautifully engineered hardware, and may have fallen for the charms of an iPhone (although strictly as a case study in usability... :), but switching to the Mac OS as your primary computing platform? I'm not so sure.Having run Windows Server 2003, Active Directory, and Exchange

iPhone Rumors for MacWorld San Francisco

http://www.iphonenewsblog.com

Seems like the real buzz besides an iPhone Nano announcement tomorrow is that Apple will be announcing some kind of tethering plan with AT&T. I hope that Apple and AT&T have worked out the details to offer tethering to their customers but I'm not sure I personally have a need for it. My aging laptop is a Powerbook 1Ghz G4 so it stays home most of the time but I am in the market for a new one this year... In any case, yours truly is hoping for some kind of announcement on the next iPhone/
