Keep in mind that Apple outsources a lot of this front-end work to their agency, TBWA/Chiat/Day Media Arts Lab. As a services firm they have less incentive to use standards created by Apple, though I think they do really great work.
- rlu 14y agoI was just about to comment asking whether Apple engineers actually did this. For sure this is some cool stuff, but I think it'd be a bummer to say "I work at Apple" and then in response to "oh cool, what do you work on?" say "I work on the iPhone -webpage-"
- alanfalcon 14y agoWhy? I worked at Blizzard. On the Blizzard web pages.
- patman 14y agoSorry Dude. Apparently you're just not cool ;-)
- trafnar 14y agoI've always been impressed with Blizzard's web pages. It's the type of style I typically don't like, but it is done really well and appropriately. I often used it as an example in my classes to show how to do very graphical websites the right way. So, good work! I think you're cool :)
- arrrg 14y agoThe saddest job at Apple is working on the tries-very-hard-to-look-and-feel-like-iOS-but-doesn’t-really-manage iPod nano OS. The website – especially these pages – is pretty exciting in comparison.
- snowwrestler 14y agoI knew they did the TV commercials but this is the first I've heard that the Apple website is designed and built by anyone other than Apple's own marketing team. I find it really surprising and, to be honest, hard to believe. For one thing, there are often jobs listed in Apple marketing whose descriptions reference working on Apple.com.
