The new Google employee, Tim Bray: Apple – is a magical world behind the barbed wire

It is unlikely that there are still IT-resources, which do not cover events escalating battle between Apple and Google. In war, as we know, all means are good, so now Google added fuel to the fire, taking the father of the Internet – one of the authors of language XML – Bray Tim (Tim Bray) for the post of Adviser on application development platform for Android.

It is not clear what exactly Bray will deal with Google. But in his blog he shares with humor and sarcasm explained why he decided to cooperate with this company is:

  • The Google platform Android – is not a project for one day;
  • Ease of use Android is already at a fairly high level, and it will grow;
  • Android – a platform for developers: no silly restrictions and, moreover, is available to millions of programmers working with Java;
  • For the release of its applications do not need to wait for a visual signal (from Steve Jobs – a veiled hint Bray), and the same with the commercialization of applications;
  • Android – open platform;
  • Android – a promising platform as a technological point of view and from a business standpoint;
  • Android – an excellent opportunity to catch a new wave of countries with weak economies;
  • In the end, Breyu just like to compete with Apple.

Now, says Bray, Apple sells 90 thousand phones per day across the world; devaysov based on Android are sold at less than one third, but the gap is not so large, so that Android have a good chance to overtake iPhone.

"The philosophy of the iPhone does not take into account the fact that all people – different, not taken into account the fact that sex and freedom of choice – this is normal. iPhone – is entirely the restrictions on freedom of speech. It's a magical world behind the barbed wire and guarded by angry lawyers. Those who create applications for the iPhone, serve his master, and fear his wrath – in color describes the situation Bray. – And it annoys me.

Android – the exact opposite of iPhone. With Android, according to the Pioneer Network, a mobile Internet is the future. Although recognized Bray, everything connected with the iPhone, made on the conscience … That's just not quite in the right way: if the iPhone will become an open platform, Bray happy to reconsider its opinion. And yet here it is, what to eat.
