Stephen Fry and his new Blog!
The first time I went to Stephen Fry’s website I asked myself: “Why isn’t he keeping a blog? I is a great writer, as far as I am aware he is a computer (Apple) literate… ”
Today, wandering around into the field of bits and bytes my RSS reader brings me, I discovered his first post in his shiny new Blog! Great news for we, little humans. Another spectacular news is that his first post is about the iPhone, or as he calls it, the fryPhone! Let me tell you two things about the iPhone:
- I have never seen such an incredible hype about anything else.
- On the 9th of November I will be in the queue for it. :)
However…
I have appreciated a lot Mr Fry’s post on the little jewel of Cupertino, mainly because he has told one very important thing:
Even I, mad for all things Apple as I am, want an iPhone killer. I want smart digital devices to be as good as mankind’s ingenuity can make them. I want us eternally to strive to improve and surprise. Bring on the iPhone killers. Bring them on.
Wow, what a spirit. But he is right, let the competitors come. Let them sell us some piece of transparent technology. Using the iPhone seems to be the easiest thing in the world, have you ever kept in your hand a Symbian? (After a long week I still have problems finding some menu).
I liked the first post of this newborn blog, even if it was extremely long for a blog post… but if was definitely good!
…and the blogsphere cheered the birth of a new, shiny blog!
