I’ve been riding Apple quite a bit lately over their hard/software openness policies. In some ways it’s like nagging a sibling who you like, but want to see do their best.
It seems I’m not completely alone in this. John Battelle posted along with Tim O’Reily an invite to participate their Web 2.0 conference. What’s interesting about this post is that Battelle criticizes Apple for their corporate –not technological– openness.
I hope Apple (and Jobs) legitimately considers all of this criticism.
