<div class="quote segment"><blockquote cite="http://rc3.org/2009/12/22/rss-readers-are-for-professionals/"><p>If you’re just linking to the stuff that people are all talking about on Twitter or that floats to the top of Hacker News, you may as well give up on your blog, as far as I’m concerned. Everybody already sees that stuff. You have to dig deeper to offer more interesting information, and an RSS reader is the best tool you can use for that purpose.</p></blockquote><p class="cite"> - <a href="http://rc3.org/2009/12/22/rss-readers-are-for-professionals/">Rafe Colburn</a></p>

<div class="quote segment"><blockquote cite="http://rc3.org/2010/05/05/the-future-of-flash-as-a-platform/"><p>The crisis Flash now faces is that Apple has made it clear that Flash will no longer be ubiquitous, as it won’t exist on the iPhone platform, thus turning “runs everywhere” into “runs almost everywhere.” As Web developers know, “runs almost everywhere” is a recipe for doing everything at least twice.</p></blockquote><p class="cite"> - <a href="http://rc3.org/2010/05/05/the-future-of-flash-as-a-platform/">Rafe Colburn</a></p>

<div class="quote segment"><blockquote cite="http://rc3.org/2010/01/28/is-the-ipad-the-harbinger-of-doom-for-personal-computing/"><p>If Apple is really successful, it’s likely that other companies will be more emboldened to forsake openness as well. The catch is that customers won’t accept the sudden closing of a previously open platform, that’s one of the reasons Palladium failed. But Apple has shown that users will accept most anything in an entirely new platform as long as it offers users the experience they want.</p></blockquote><p class="cite"> - <a href="http://rc3.org/2010/01/28/is-the-ipad-the-harbinger-of-doom-for-personal-computing/">Rafe C more »

<div class="quote segment"><blockquote cite="http://rc3.org/2010/04/09/apples-kneecaps-competitors-and-partners/"><p>We all think of Java as a boring server-side language now, but the initial idea behind Java was that software developers could write applications in Java rather than writing them for Windows, and that those applications would work everywhere, thus defanging Microsoft’s desktop OS monopoly. Microsoft took various steps to prevent that from happening, but they lacked a tool like App Store that would enable them to just ban Java. Apple has that card to play, so they’re playing it.</p></blockquote><p class="cite"> - <a href="http://rc3.org/20 more »

All About Symbian Provides Spot On Insight on Truphone and Nokia - 26-6-2009 7:53:34
Rafe Blandford, of All About Symbian, is someone I've gotten to know as a result of the Nokia Blogger Relations efforts over the past few years. He's someone whose perspective on what is happening on Nokia Symbian based devices combines the understanding of a user, with the insight of an analyst and the why it does what it does perspective of a programmer/engineer. Yesterday Rafe posted what I am calling the seminal post about Truphone's expanded array of Nokia handset deployment options, in one concise and extremely well written post. In a note to Rafe I said, "the post most... more »
