man this ipad memo stuff is wearing thin. Even that link he posted, the guy finished the book on a Mac. Yes you can do bits of creation of the iPad. But Macs are way better at most of it. And that should be OK. iBooks: on iPad. iBooks Author: on Mac.

Man that was a lot of words to get across "I think I am worth literally twice as much per year than even John Gruber ever thought he was worth for his RSS feed"

NB Gruber now easily makes six figures across his various channels, seems to have no qualms about it.

I’ve long suspected that Mayer preferred the iPhone to Android as a user. She was into Instagram while it was iPhone-only. She’s sent multiple tweets — September 2011, June of this year — using Twitter for iPhone. And her husband just tweeted that he’s switching to the iPhone from BlackBerry.I’ve long suspected that Mayer preferred the iPhone to Android as a user.

It's a blog not just about Apple, but about excellence.
His voice can be muscular and rigorous.
But he maybe best understands excellence as it relates to blogging.
he can still better articulate what's fun and compelling about link-sharing (which he's been doing since before we deemed it curation) than anyone
Apple, Gruber's Beatrice, is engorged as a company
He hasn't written, for a long time, an engaging description of a laptop or an account of an anthropomorphized interface element.
It is a testament, still, to the power and potential of writing on the web, to the blogger as auteur
