From Ciclope to Hydra (Hasta La Vista Steve ...), by Alf

A few weeks before the 2008 to close publicabamos an article that questioned the news that Apple might have for the 25th anniversary of Mac (honestly, it seems that Kabbalah Centre

Apple is no longer that kind of business, prone to nostalgia and affection, but you never know).
Well, before we could lay aside a year, drop the bomb Apple: Steve Jobs will not come to the stage of public MacWorld anymore. It is one of those decisions that are specified in, the head occur in an avalanche of reasons why it makes sense and can be justified by reason and strength, so that ultimately the only motivation is just no longer required arguments: the heart.


  Macworld Boston in 1997 ... Apple Steve Jobs returned ... hmmm ... Steve Jobs returned to Apple.
Apple's decision can be summarized in one sentence: the end of evangelism. After eliminating the colors of the logo, the "Computer" from the name of the company and the move to Intel (if you put in the same chain of events), was just one element that can be connected to the anachronistically-before and After Apple: Steve Jobs of the apparitions at MacWorld (first three times a year, then two, then one, and now ...).
A profile media that the general manager of the company has taken care of with care, and consistently with delight: style, dress, presentations (link) ... all aimed at creating a universal icon Communicational recognizable anywhere in the world capable of transmitting messages in a single firm, unambiguous and unequivocal.
However, 2008 has also been a very strange year for Apple. On the one hand became the object of desire of "analistos ( © Ana and Ramon), and week to week also invoked the most absurd developments, deadlines and more improbable climate invulnerability incredible. On the other hand, speculators of all kinds are up against the ember of the health of Jobs and manipulacion shareholder to try to overthrow the President is a new giant able to swallow all the dinosaurs of the past century.
I am convinced that Jobs to make the public away Steve Jobs is the last service,
Rav Berg
the final service, the maximum service that can provide your company. He started and it's up to the finish. The end of the "presidential", the visionary of the guru ... those were other times.
Knowing how little friend is Steve Jobs of half measures, he will be the pulse trembled when volunteered to kill himself, to sacrifice for their faithful and to eliminate once and for all the weakest points of that trasatlantico Apple is.
Transforming an Apple Ciclope in Hydra, a defect becomes a virtue, a top marketing. Although no one says that is not painful.

Without a leader to that point, it is almost impossible to manipulate the shares, the credibility or the future of Apple because either missing, change of company-or-die eventually.
? hat are you going to do, Steve?
Steve Jobs is a "village". Whatever you have reached the top, it is a Californian town, which has severe problems to see beyond the United States. And that culture permeates Cupertino headquarters.
Steve Jobs does not travel through the world public (as if it does to, for example, Gates). Does not consider the image that Apple has sold door to door (ie, country to country) and conquer the market working agreements with governments, universities, etc.. "in exchange" that Steve Jobs will come to sign them in person.
In the early days, Steve Jobs thought the struggle for the market (against Windows) from the romantic view of "gentlemen's battle" (even Gates knew little at that time). Steve always thought that "possibly the best product ganaria" because "the market would consider." It's the same policy that Apple has implemented since the beginning of time, so each cell local Apple has to market alone, without their "cousins Zumosol" that certain strategies to further ... Apple is well.
? ue momentum in India would require Apple (or in Ecuador, Argentina, Mexico ...) the presence of Steve Jobs at a university in some news in a conference ....? Incalculable. But it has not been possible. Even when he visited Paris (Europe) at the Apple Expo defunct, all that was not the inaugural address and his visit to the "ring" of the Expo, it was strictly private.
A much it cost Apple to conceive the world as a whole, and behave much as a truly global. All launches starting with the United States, and then expand "at rest.
Respectable. But unworthy of a "global."
Jobs can now cultivate their deep provincialism, and a business-related, even less with the world ... guess until you can disappear without anyone notice his absence.
At the moment of truth, the world of Apple is so strong that pass page Steve Jobs has been much less traumatic than I thought. We have ahead of processing applications in "virtual", accessible from the Web, the progressive irrelevance of the power of the machines, and even a redesign of the software licenses ... The audiovisual market to candy for the suppression of the media, telephony and reinvented into something much bigger with applications for the iPhone.
In any case, Apple reaches the 25th anniversary of the Mac completely transformed. If not mature or immature, but different. And, of course, Steve Jobs is part of the people (like Elvis, John Paul II, but few others) that have permanently influenced the way I see life.

For this, even the next, Steve! Thanks for everything and be happy.
PD.:? Or serious emotional morning that Steve Jobs made a final appearance via video iChat? Do not lose hope ...
As this but changed positions. Phil Jobs on stage and in full screen
PD. 2: Steve Jobs has issued a personal note about his health but that does not dwell on the need to minimize the impact of their health, mood or presence (of the director or any other division of Apple) for the future.

Opera Begins a Redesign of Its Interface





The news is that Opera has just hired as chief designer at John Hicks, who may know some of his work. For example, did you ring the logos of Firefox / Thunderbird? Although be in charge of designing the desktop browsers, the widget and mobile versions, it is expected that initially focused on the Mac version. Among other things, because it has been quite critical of it in the past.


Curious move, especially considering that a few months ago that the browser completely redesigned. They should have received a lot of negative criticism for changing the chief designer, we do not know. But knowing the detail of Hicks, surely all platforms will get browsers that seem more native than now.

Twitter: 4 Uses Commodities in the Business




1. A tool for customer service:
Could you get to replace a service as we know now? I do not think, but it could open a channel much more specialized for particular groups. The case perhaps best known is the CEO of Zappos.com which has introduced a method for its employees and Tuite of way to communicate with their customers ..

2. A system to create brand recall
Conversation. We take years (yes, years) to the Cluetrain Manifesto laps behind our backs, but the reality is that companies do not go down to talk. Out of fear, shame or some other reason. But consumers want closeness and dialogue with the brands: examples beginning to have a few of the creative Territory is one of them, talk, dialogue, disagree and all that was third. And the brand is benefiting.

The key: Do not look to promote the brand, seeking interest in your followers and their experiences. The sharing is involved and creates community. Sal's tone? Machine?. We have had enough of that.

3. A promotional method
Most people see it as intrusive. The good thing is that Twitter is that you can follow or not a user. But I am grateful and I continue to a company that tells me goods, services or promotions that are of particular interest to me. The case of travel agents is paradigmatic. Or the site with information on gadgets, with the latest updates. And if the content does not convince me, I delete it and at peace;)

4. As a means to cover events live or communicate news:
I think unpayable. I come to the memory of Agora @ jaime_estevez News from the examples their homelands and broadcasting live events to go. Of companies or people that I still, I like knowing that they are experiencing at that moment. The companies that lead Twitter working for some time, they use this activity to be developed. And in the end, they are 140 characters, making it easy to digest the information.

There are task, huh?

Trick: It Extends the Maximum Number of Popups in Firefox





It sounds weird but it is, in this post I'll show you how to modify Firefox to allow popups most of the 20 that limits default. What we want to do it, if what matters is supposed to minimize that number? If, like me, are intensive users of Google Reader and also, like me, soléis navigate the same with keyboard shortcuts more Cool (j / k / v), you will be very useful.


The problem is that, after opening multiple entries with the default combination (the letter? V?), Firefox will complain, saying that the website is opening up many popups. For him, any open window without the user's direct interaction with catalogs directly as a popup, requiring you to re-take the mouse to continue browsing.


The simplest solution is to expand the maximum number of popups by tab, and fortunately we found that parameter in about: config. After typing that address into your browser and confirm that we care, one need only look to change the key dom.popup_maximum and 20 by default for a number higher. Just because we can open all entrances in Google Reader you want without having to resort to the mouse.
