I think the biggest thing missing from this article - or really this mindset - is that Apple's biggest success was disrupting the phone business. True, they innovated with the iPad. But their best moves have come when a market for a pr

"And it certainly wouldn't have to be the same "who" all the time." Totally agree. And this is the hard part for leaders -- letting their people make big decisions, because the mistakes will be attributed to the t

This is where a mission and values come into play. Leadership sets the tone and provides a framework (people should have input during this process of course), then gets out of the way so its people can make their own decisions inside that m

Great writeup. Consensus is important, but total dependence on agreement can water down solutions and lead to gridlock. Plus, settling on a solution (however modified) that one person has advocated from the start helps them own it. So long

"Why would you buy a Macbook and an iPhone if you could get away with just one?" I agree, but I also see this as the moment their product line would start to calcify. I don't worry about Apple's ability to make the smart

It'll be interesting to see if there is a convergence, though. As iPads get faster & Apple invests more in the iOS versions of their software, the iPad will naturally become a competitor to traditional laptops. The lack of a keyboa

"Many of the Gruber-inspired school of bloggers try to minimize ads and rely on direct support from their readers." That's awesome. I hope it gets traction. I guess we'll see as you move forward ;)

Really curious to hear how this works out. I don't recall ever seeing a paid newsletter signup form; most authors/email list owners use email as a free lead gen tool to sell something else (a book, an online course, etc). It&#x2

The realization that a new notebook is on the way in a month would probably prompt me to write more, just to use up the notebook. That would be a great way to force me away from my little glowing screens for a little decompression time.

It's also a response to google docs. Introducing collaboration on iWork is a good first step to address to the shift towards shared docs. I imagine we'll see that expand significantly in the future.

Financial transparency FTW. I've worked for two companies that were extremely transparent. It's made me feel like a) the company knows I am a big kid and can take the good & the bad news, and b) views me as a partner in the wo

Apple definitely removed as many affordances as possible with each screen, almost to the extreme. Now, have I figured out how each screen works? Yes. Do I think the UI would be improved with a few more visual hints (button backgrounds, cons

You nailed it. Dribbble excels at featuring and sharing solutions to visual design challenges. Icons. Logos. UI components that show effective affordance (as best you can tell from a small screenshot). I think Dribbble is somewhat a victim
