Missed Space
My friend Mandheep recently shared this link with me via his blog.
My reaction was similar to his, though perhaps even more agressively critical of the position taken by the article in question.
The student body has migrated to world of apps. They no longer think in terms of “web site”, “homepage”, or “forums”. In fact, I don’t think they are even thinking in terms of “Internet”. Their interactive content experience is no longer segmented by platform (PC, Mac, mobile, PDA, etc), but rather by activity (tweeting, SMS, ringtones, video upload and sharing, etc).
The sooner developers come to terms with this, the more nimbly they will be able to participate in the ongoing evolution of social connectivity.
“Give me something interesting and engaging to do, but for goodness sake don’t try and tell me where I can do it, when I can do it, or how…I simply don’t care”.
Kids!
