Just a Work in Progress. Apple and Android, Walled Garden vs Open Source. October 23, 2015. 8220;I think Android hurts them more than it helps them. It’s just going to divide them and people who want to be their partners.”. 8211; Steve Jobs, 2008. So Android’s device philosophy is all about it’s technology being open source. This means that you can root your phone since they give out the open source code, you can browse Android’s many unofficial app markets. Control over the platform, content and userbase.

Remember how that ended? The guy that started it all ran off with thousands of dollars and was never heard from again. We can’t forgot the ...

One more media blog…. Follow me on Twitter. Citizen Journalism and the Rise of Unmediated Aggregation. Pretty sure the last time I heard “something first” on the 6 o’clock news was about 2005. Since then, the sheer velocity with which news worthy content floods cyberspace is astounding. Take for example the Sydney siege of the Lindt Cafe in December 2014 (yeah, it was that long ago.). IPhone vs Android… a waste of brain power. Social Media Revolutions (no one learnt from France). Great meme, and it reall...

iPhone vs Android… a waste of brain power. – One more media blog…

https://jarradtatton.wordpress.com/2015/10/23/iphone-vs-android-a-waste-of-brain-power

One more media blog…. Follow me on Twitter. IPhone vs Android… a waste of brain power. What if I told you that arguing over which platform is better is not only futile, but a total waste of your time? What I’ve taken most from studying both platforms and their features and limitations, and studying the fiery debates themselves… is that neither side is better or worse, right or wrong.
