Since I don’t have cable, I don’t really know what a pain this is, but it sounds horrible. Why does everyone seem to think that Apple can solve this?
The answer is to cut the cable cord. I know. I know. Live events still need to be solved, but it’s getting better every year.
Situations like this are weird. Sure, there’s competition in the cable industry at a macro-level. However, once you personally commit to a service, they have a monopoly on you at a micro-level… with very little incentive to make it work any better.
But one of them will crack and give into a seamless experience with Apple/Google/Microsoft just like AT&T did with the iPhone. When that happens, everything will change.
The short version: “Games, music, movies, web, and now, Skype and live TV.” As predicted, this is an uber-device for the living room, not a games-focused console.
1) The design of the webpage/article is pretty sweet.
2) Microsoft is really proud of the design, as they should be! They’ll have to get rid of it when they start marketing it, but for now the geeks are loving it.
3) Content is king. Bringing in live TV is key. I want to try their voice navigation in the wild. I would like to see better integration with their app store, but maybe that’ll come later?
Photos tell the stories — stories we’re inspired to relive, share with our friends, or capture simply to express ourselves. Collecting these moments is a part of our everyday. Since 2005, Flickr has become synonymous with inspiring imagery. Today, we’re thrilled…
I like the bigger photos. Yahoo seems to be firing on all cylinders today.
