Rod Begbie : Silly season [dive into mark] - Beautiful summation of the current Adobe Apollo/Microsoft Silverlight hype-off from Mark Pilgrim. "That poster may as well be titled "Fucked 6 Ways From Sunday," because that's what you'll be if you buy into any of this." #
jimray : Mark Pilgrim on Apollo, Silverlight and why he doesn't think you should use either - "Y’all have fun. Play with your vendor-specific runtimes. Don’t call me when you wake up one morning with a pink line in the round window and your BFF vendor won’t return your calls."
Simon Willison : Silly season - Silly season. Mark expresses exactly what I’ve been thinking. The fawning over Silverlight and Apollo is incredibly short sighted.
jcgregorio : Silly season [dive into mark] - ""building applications on the web that works."" Of course, all the commenters skip the money quote and try to defend their share-cropping platform of choice.
deusx : Silly season [dive into mark] - "Sigh. I used to have the strength to argue against such foolishness. Nowadays I’m reduced to nothing more than Grey’s-Anatomy-esque catchphrases."
nelson : Silly season - Mark is cynical so I don't have to be

Jeremy Zawodny : Sharecroppers - Sharecroppers: "Steve Jobs doesn’t build platforms, except by accident. He doesn’t care about your thriving metropolis. All you independent Mac developers: you’re all sharecroppers, and your rent just went up. Way up."
43folders : Sharecroppers [dive into mark] - "All you independent Mac developers: you’re all sharecroppers, and your rent just went up. Way up."
plasticbag : Mark Pilgrim has a rather negative view of Steve Jobs' announcement about iPhone software - I'm a bit new to this particular shitstorm that seems to be coursing over the internet, but it seems to me that this is no more or less spectacular than Nokia's requirement that you get applications signed before they can be run on Series 60...

Rod Begbie : Addiction is... - A discussion the other day reminded me of this post by Mark Pilgrim from 2001, and re-reading it, damn if it isn't one of the best things ever written in the name of "blogging". #
