And even if they implement the "open standard" in outlook, who says Google won't bait and switch (oh the irony) then, like they did with their youtube apps on windows mobile?
- thefreeman 14y agoGive me a break. How is requesting they remove a non-compliant youtube app a "bait and switch". Is this going to be the new "cool" thing to post now every time a submission involves google?
- ChrisClark 14y agoOh yeah, bait and switch. If Google abused an API and went against the terms would you complain about bait and switch when the access was disabled?
- pjscott 14y agoSo, suppose that (a) companies start sending useful metadata with their emails, (b) other clients like Outlook add support, and then (c) GMail capriciously removes support. As long as the metadata keeps getting sent, and there are clients which can do interesting things with it, I don't see the problem here.
