This NY Times piece is a bit dry, but I did love this quote: “It’s like they read our minds,” said David Myers, executive chef at Sona restaurant in Los Angeles and chief executive of the Food Arts Group, where the employees currently use the […]

Jonathan Ive – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_ive I’m compelled to voice one other quibble with today’s keynote: Steve has kept me waiting for a year plus without a Jon Ive talking head segment. “Jony” was called in the audience during the iPhone demo, but no spotlight (klieg lights would work too) was cast upon him. Steve, man, I need my Jon […]

Google Takes Aim at Excel – New York Times
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/06/06/technology/06google.html Google isn’t perfect, and I hate the thought of replacing one monopoly with another, but if it has to happen, I’d rather the monopoly who actually cares about, y’know, usability be the one to win.

Apple – Why You’ll Love a Mac – A Mac is the ultimate upgrade.
http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/ The new series of Apple ads for everyone to love/hate, depending on your platform religion. All fairly cute, simple and effective – just like the product they represent. (Can you guess which side of the fence I’m on?)
