Crossing the line
Link to an opinion piece on reporting about Jobs’ health.
I totally understand that living in the public spotlight means that privacy sometimes is difficult to come by. I really do understand that. But there are still lines. While I find it distasteful, I get that the Mac Rumors and Apple Insider teams feels compelled to report that Jobs has been seen at a cancer treatment clinic.
However, linking to stories about how long someone has left to live is a different thing entirely — and is way over the line. Gizmodo, 9 to 5 Mac, Cult of Mac and others all crossed that line today.
Nice piece by Stephen M. Hackett (tip o’ the antlers to Jeff Carlson).

Same as it ever was
First Macworld post of the year, but how new is this year anyway?
It’s a new year but you wouldn’t necessarily know that by the arguments silly pundits make and what Microsoft introduces. Oh, well. At least the Mac App Store is new.
