Moz has definitely stepped it up a notch with Brendan Eich as CTO. Asm.js, Emscripten, Moz OS and more.
The key issue will, again, be the Unholy Trinity: mfgr, os provider, carrier. Who updates the critter? Who debugs it. Who fixes Doug's WiFi problem?
Google, as far as I can tell, is a complete fail at managing android expectations. Who Ya Gonna Call!? Samsung? Verizon? Google? Maybe Ghost Busters, but certainly not Google.
So my guess is that Moz will do a better job, at least from the developer and tech-savvy user standpoint.

Sounds like a job for Arlo! Speaking of which, where has he been this summer... I missed his "voice" especially from the perspective of a "Millennial" in this NSA falderal. Arlo? Are you back from summer camp on the ISS or somewhere equally amazing? - Steve ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com |

[Cleaning up the very last of the old email]
Arlo? Are you back from summer camp on the ISS or somewhere equally amazing?Oh man, I wish!I was somewhere only marginally less awesome, a Santa Fe Institute summer camp...in Groton, Massachusetts. Some more details here. I missed his "voice" especially from the perspective of a "Millennial" in this NSA falderal.I think pretty much everyone's reaction would be / has been the same: "Of course they have been illegally spying on us, that is not news. Still outrageous, though." For a commentary on the modern American surveillance society with a link to teenagerhood, read Cory Doctorow's books Little Brother and Homeland (can be freely downloaded). I just finished them, and felt they were good reading but not particularly good fiction. I think you would probably want an outsider who is more of an insider (knowledge-wise) to cell and wireless systems than I am. I could tinker, but you would probably not get a working phone back. :PDoug does or finds an `outsider' (e.g. a clever high school student) to do it. It's all open source and hackable.Sounds like a job for Arlo! -Arlo ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com |

Arlo -
Welcome back... even though we have spoken, I didn't realize you were at The CAMP ... very cool... I think you mentioned that you worked as a guide or counselor this year after having attended as a student for several before? Both are now on my list (and hard drive), I'll see your Doctorow and raise you a Max Barry: Jennifer Government. <grin> Is it a coincidence that my last visit to Doug's place was to pick up a full truckload of used bricks? One day we will find people paving their walkways with bricked smart-phones otherwise headed for the recycle. Carry on! - Steve ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com |
