Jean-Louis Gassee on iTunes vs. Windows
Just ran across this blog post by former Macintosh and BeOS honcho Jean-Louis Gassee. In it, he offers insights on why iTunes is the way it is and why it can be such a pain to use, especially on Windows. For those interested in the origins of iTunes, take a look at this short Wikipedia article. Enjoy.

Watch Out for That Flash Update!
Interesting news from ZDNet about the latest Flash update from Adobe. No, the problem is not the update itself, but the attempt by one of Adobe's partners to scare you into downloading useless crapware. My advice: get the update; don't fall for the scam.
Also interesting: the tale of a Web startup that decided it wasn't going to pay the Microsoft Tax. I can remember when Internet Explorer was the dominant Web browser. Now, not so much.
Cheers!
