I'm about as much of a Google fanboy as you can be and unfortunately zdw's words ring true.
Also, in spite of Apple's success I'm not sure Google would do well to emulate them. I (and I would guess many others) have loved Google because they aren't Apple, though unfortunately they do seem to be inching that way at an increasing rate.
- mkr-hn 15y agoAre you talking about their recent UX trend of turning everything into a minimalist interface with a lot of whitespace?
- georgemcbay 15y agoNo, I was talking more about their business side -- killing off everything that isn't a direct profit center and moves towards unopenness (no Honeycomb source code, etc). In regards to UI, I wouldn't mind if they copied Apple more there but only if they copied the good (great defaults) without copying the bad (no ability for power users to modify the defaults).
