>I never understood why people exaggerate so much Android's fragmentation problem, when the world's most fragmented platform, the Windows PC, has demonstrated it was not an obstacle to market domination... It's easy to understand. While it is definitely an irritant for developers and users, the most noise about it seems to be coming from the Apple camp, who go out of the way and spend considerable effort in documenting the fragmentation and then escalating it to being the end of the world. Take the only other blog post on the site linked. http://pxldot.com/post/17983848516/one http://pxldot.com/post/17983848516/one The author talks about why he wants to write for the blog. >I want to talk about numbers, and design, and Apple, and simplicity, and productivity, and life. Maybe there will be a unifying thread, but it’s entirely possible there there won’t be. The world is too big for me to commit to only a single piece. Even if this sharpens the pain of only being able to faintly cover any given topic, I am the sum of my passions, and what I create should be the same. And then starts off not by talking about Apple, but how their competition is bad. It's nothing more than an attack piece to feel good about his/her choice. Why else would anyone who is obviously not very interested in Android as a user or a developer go to so much effort? Not to mention that the fragmentation meme was started by Steve Jobs himself in an Apple earnings call, and all the Apple blog circles picked it up and went from there.
