To Android or Not To Android?

Found a serious and a not-so-serious posting about the new Android operating system from Google. The first, a serious analysis of who's participating in the Android alliance and why, is interesting from a market dynamic and background standpoint.

The second is just damn funny. It's a posting by (ahem) Steve Jobs on his highly-unofficial blog, where he explains that the Android OS is, shall we say, less than ideal, especially when compared with the iPhone, which is perfect. Then again, he might be biased.

Nerd Sniping

This comic pokes fun at the tendency of engineering-type people to be sidetracked by interesting problems. Good thing I'd never do anything like that. Bad things could happen.
