What a Week!
Periodically, I find that a week comes along in which a ton of important stuff on and for the web comes to a boil all at once. This is one of those weeks. Here are just some of the things that I am looking at
- The Release of Office 2010 and the fight between hybrid mode (desktop + web) versus online only
- Facebook’s extraordinarily complex privacy settings and its all-hands meeting to address the issue at the same time as the small alternative Diaspora project gets big time press and becomes a blow-out success on Kickstarter
- HTC sues Apple over patent infringement as a counter-suit to Apple’s suit against HTC, which both add to the ongoing patent suits between Apple and Nokia
It is enough to make one’s head explode just trying to think about where all of this is headed. And if you need some further food for thought, head over and look at Terence Kawaja’s excellent presentation on the complexity of the online advertising market.
