Linkbait. Writing an article, one year on from Jobs' death, proclaiming Apple dried up and dead, is at best ignorant, hyperbolic, impatient "journalism." He basically lauds Apple in one breath for being the slow and steady company that created the modern smartphone and tablet spheres, then hammers them for not instantly becoming a rapid-fire "see what sticks" Samsung-style company in the next! And of course, like everyone not actually in the inner sanctum at Apple, he has zero idea what Apple has planned in the long-term. Zero. But he acts like he knows everything.
This is just garbage. Some people should stop complaining so much - the same qualities they praised Apple for yesterday they slam them for the next.
- nnnnni 14y agoWait, it's been a whole year already? Wow, time flies.
- Slackwise 14y agoDid you see the bold disclaimer at the top of the article? It points out that this is a requested op-ed piece and not a normal BBC article. The author of this piece is the guy who writes the fake Steve Jobs blog "The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs". I wouldn't start condemning the BBC just yet.
