The Incredibly Credulous Tech Press

February 10th, 2011

Yesterday I spec­u­lated that it would take less than 24 hours for this spec­u­la­tion from Apple pun­dit extra­or­di­naire John Gruber to be accepted as gospel truth by the tech press. Apparently I need to re-calibrate my already abysmal expec­ta­tion of the media; because no more than 3 hours after mak­ing that pre­dic­tion I walked into my local bar and was inun­dated with pan­icky fear that the next iPad was being delayed until Fall. Keep in mind that I’m talk­ing about nor­mal peo­ple here, peo­ple who think that “Gruber” is the bad guy from Die Hard.

Quick Initial Thoughts on the Daily

February 4th, 2011

Having played with The Daily for a day or two now, here are my ini­tial thoughts:

  • Brilliant con­cept
  • The app is slow and crashy
  • No archives is a deal-breaker
  • The con­tent, while obvi­ously well done, is of almost no inter­est to me

Bottom line: I prob­a­bly will not use The Daily, but I’m very inter­ested in see­ing where other media com­pa­nies go with this for­mat (and the accom­pa­ny­ing sub­scrip­tion model).
