IT’S A BABY. I’m not sure it tells us much about the nature of user interfaces because IT’S A BABY and it DOESN’T UNDERSTAND WHAT MAGAZINES ARE. It also doesn’t understand what an iPad is, or what a user interface is, because it’s a one year old baby and it doesn’t even understand what itself is.

Android Froyo Is a Slap in Apple’s Face (via Mashable)

“One couldn’t help but notice the slightly smug note of this morning’s Google I/O keynote on the upcoming Android OS, codenamed Froyo.

It plays nicely with Flash and HTML 5. It does native and web apps. It makes devices run faster than the iPad. It streams music from iTunes or any other desktop music library. It does painless, wireless tethering. It makes transferring apps from the desktop to mobile completely automatic.

It makes the iPhone look like a clunky, locked-down piece of junk, in so many words.”

<3 Android forever.
